Can only remember two ice storms here, 100's of wrecks each time. I carry a plastic jug of floor dry in the cage, gives great traction. Hadda use it to get up the driveway once.
I threw some sand out there a couple days ago so my daughter didn't bust her azz carrying the little one in. We had freezing rain days ago and then the temps dropped like a rock... we get this crap every year without fail. I keep bags of sand in my grudge...

Probably cheaper than floor dry, but a lot heavier, too. I hate ice, even more than snow.

Mornin Ken.... bright sunny day here. Doesn't really matter though. All the same in the powerhouse. Would be nice to get the bike out for a winter's ride, but by the time I get outta here, the sun has set and the heat is gone.

been outside twice. Good riding weather. Staying inside so I don't get too depressed about it.
