Gonna be bitter cold for a few days, it's MN what else is new?

I was accessing this situation on my way from Chicago the other day. Slowing down is not a bad idea. The problem is spacing. I watched people doing 35mph lined up like dominoes bumper to bumper. One person hits their brakes and there goes the chain reaction that ends up in a pile up. Drive a speed you are comfortable with in the conditions and stay away from other people.

I found myself doing 75 a couple times just trying to pull away from these packs of Dominoes.

Not actively, Russ. My good ol' FB, vivid black of course (with acknowledgement to Larry) takes me everywhere I want to go. If I ever get the urge to do long distance touring then a RK will be added.

We could cut quite the image on like painted bikes, one with hard bags and the other with leather.
