I couldn't help it - Had to go out.

Ok, i'm still a total bike noob - and got ahead of myself a little bit today...

There are still 10 inches of snow in the yard, but the roads were clear, so I thought, NO PROBLEMO ...

I had to get the bike out of the yard, through which i had only dug a single 3 foot wide path - so, i'll be fine, right? NO. my bike was backwards, and had to turn it around to get it out. That was a HUGE effort - almost more than it was worth, but once I started I couldn't stop.

I have now learned how my bike behaves when is slews out side to side on total slippery ground.

I shall repeat the following until .... the spring:
600lb crusiers are not dirt bikes
600lb crusiers are not dirt bikes
600lb crusiers are not dirt bikes

I didn't drop it - but only b/c i am very very lucky.

BUT, the 40 minute ride was THERAPY!

Happy holidays everyone!

You are officially a biker now.
