Well we got about 8 " fresh snow Friday and Saturday
I live on the highway on a private gravel road about a mile long.
Rarely gets graded in the summer let alone plowed in winter.
As sson as I can get to the main road I will ride.
supposed to snow tonight and tomorrow again though.
Main highway is ice pack as of yesterday so have to wait till it is gone to ride again.

But cold????? I just dress warmer.

I was on a ride like that, but it was raining/snowing too. The lead guy had no windshield, no goggles, no helmet, no mask, just glasses and a beanie (I had all the above).

When we stopped about 45 miles later at the first spot on the poker run he says he always rides that way, and it showed: His cheeks and nose were rosey from all of the "shot" blood vessels underneath!
