Default I rode today, I'm stupid too!

18 degrees out. Crap all on the roads, been snowing every other day, but I said Fug it. Got off duty at 3pm and got suited up and took it out to ride it over to leave at the shop for a dyno this week. The parking lot there was totally compacted snow that had turned into ice. Had to have two guys from the car wash next door hold me upright as I made the turn, that was after I had a controlled lay down[:@] Anyway the EVO 30 tooth sprocket felt great, so did the cams. Dyno should be done sometime this week.

Glad you didn't hurt anything, and I think we all have done the same thing at least once, if not twice.

There is no way in hell I would take my bike out of the garage right now.............roads are all snow, ice, and salt. Not to mention the windchill is around -10* today.
