Snow Sucks...

Post by Dac »

Well here in southwest michigan it snowing. Its Freezing outside, well close to freezing ( 36* F ). The worse part is that its not fun to ride on. Im not sure how many of you people are like me and try Stupid things like riding on ice, or trying to carry a car hood on a moped. but this small amount of snow has no ice yet. It is to thick to be slush so its fun that way ether.

This bad weather would cause some people to store there mopeds or scooters in there house. I would if i could but i think mine is going to stay in my shed were it will be ready to go encase there is a ton of ice and i feel i must.
Every time i look out the window my helmet reminds me it would be a bad idea....

Besides the cold I enjoyed riding in the snow last night..since we didn't have enough to take out snowmobiles, I did the next best thing..the moped haha. Its pretty fun riding around on the grass doing some pretty good drifts :D I almost whipped out on a few occasions but I learned fast to not give it as much throttle lol

im really thinking of taking off the back body on my 92 elite (so if i fall i dont break everything. ) and start riding that. it is fun but after a short while it just gets to cool out.

Snow sucks, makes me depressed. My spree is in my basement, and my dad wont let me work on it down there :(
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

a good friend of mine is getting a house built. they are almost done they just have to put the doors into the basement in and hook up the heat and electric and stuff. he said i could put my moped down there and work on it during winter but if i spill any gas or anything hes going to 'kick my *' .

Just go to meijers, walmart, etc and ask for some boxes, flatten them out on the floor.
