Our cold front came in yesterday.




Warm Lake at 8 am on Nov 1

 

It’s here .....

 

Ya.... I think the season is over .....




This morning. I pulled about a foot of snow off the car

 

Yikes Rocky!

I know we wouldn’t like the looks of that.
Today here it’s a beautiful day, 50F and sunny. We will keep it until we can get south.

Cheers, Terry

 

It's Jeep season!!!

I'm hoping to cut out of work and grab some miles here shortly. It's 40 degrees and sunny, but I'm sure that'll all change when I leave.

 

2 days in a row I pulled this off the car.... I was really undecided about trading my Dodge 150 4x on the 200c and wondering how long it would be before I hated it.... Anyway I had a set of Toyo G3 Ice tires put on it, and I will tell you, these things stick like glue. They are a true winter tire that has ground up Walnut shells in them and are syped so they have amazing traction. They are very quiet on bare pavement and have excellent feel for the road.

Put the car in S mode, which puts the power 60/40 rear-front, engage the paddle shifters and it is a hoot to drive in the deep. I had it 4 wheel drifting in the deep this morning. YEEHAA .... it’s going to be a fun winter after all.

 

On the beach.....

 

When is the hill opening up? Skiing should be great!

 

Mid December. It is supposed to snow again this weekend and they are making snow like crazy. The cross country runs are open and the parking lot was packed this last weekend.

 

So.... I am formulating a plan for next summer. I have not yet been to Sturgis, and how better to do it than take the Panhead. But, I am not the trailer queen type (well, not yet anyway). So... I am seriously considering riding her from home to there. I figure on four 5 hour days there and return with a week there, on as many old roads as possible ..... And it would be an old school type ride, camping, eating out of pots, no windshield, 50 mph, a stop every hour..... I will have to make a few mods such as floor boards as my legs are not long enough for the forward pegs & the exhaust to make them fit. ... but it does sound like an Adventure, doesn’t it?
