Wet, Cold, and Slippery

This past week has been kind of stressful. It has also been raining a lot! Tonight it stopped raining and the roads almost looked dry (almost). I decided to take the magnum out instead of driving my car. It's a great way to clear my head.

So I go out... blah blah blah... and the next thing I know it's 4:00am. I decided I better get home because my dog has probably got to pee pretty bad. I go outside to unlock my moped and notice this.


I guess I get to ride home in the snow. There is no one out on the roads at 4:00 when it's snowing. It's actually pretty awesome. I did wish I had fenders though. The salt from the road kept spraying into my mouth. Here are some pictures from the ride home.




Most of the roads were just wet. As I got closer to the West Side the amount of slush started to build up but it wasn't too bad. I keep my speed down anyway. I thought I was doing a pretty good job riding. I didn't even slid once. As I turned onto my street I noticed that it was covered in snow. I slowed way down just to be safe. I was probably moving about walking speed in the turn and as I started to pull out of it I gave it a little gas and spun the rear tire. I wasn't expecting that at all and ended up dropping my bike! Luckily nothing was damaged. Heres what my street looked like.


This Is some other stuff I had been messing around with earlier in the day.
