Made it out two days in a row.

Just chaps, heated vest and long sleeves. It's not that bad.

I don't care for +2° riding anymore though. Chance of hidden ice in the shadows.

The passes are all freezing too.

It's strange how you become connected to ****.

I'll buy a knife myself. Hell - I'll buy two or three, toss them when they get dull. Ha ha.

I dunno if I'll spend the $175+ for a similar knife. Just hope some kit found it - is safe with it, and gives it a good home.

I'm in southern Ontario and was able to sneak out for 2 lil blasts before we saw the white crap falling. The next few weeks are showing some decent enough days to get out and enjoy a ride.

Here's my picture of misery.. My driveway.. (I had been riding for almost a month last year)..

It hit 70F on April 22 / 2021. The forecast for April 22 this year is 39F.
