If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
Awesome ride Kevin, I will bet it was fun to drift at will.

Just beginning our ride together
Man I would have been puckered up the whole way back..
It was fun! I was prepared to ride home very slowly...even thought 5-10 mph might be the safe speed.
Was amazed how well it held...I'm sure it was because there was no ice beneath the snow.
Tomorrow night we're foretasted to get freezing rain and then it will not get above freezing all day Thursday.
Probability is that the roads will be a skating rink. I may take it out for a little spin around the neighborhood...just to see how it does...but I don't see how it could be very safe on the ice.
If I venture out on it, will take a video.
Do you hose it down after you get home or just leave it covered in snow/ice?
Laid down a bunch of towels on the floor and rode it in on top of them...thought they would absorb the ice and snow as it melted. Well after about 45 minutes the towels were soaked and the majority of snow and ice was NOT melted yet.
Got a bucket and dug most of the snow and ice out from under the bike, took the chunks off the towels and put them in the bucket and emptied the bucket outside. After 5 bucketfuls most of it was gone.
A day or two later I rode it in some pretty good rain. Have not washed it or hosed it down yet.
There is NO salt or chemicals on the roads I've been riding on.
Tomorrow I may venture out onto the ice...we'll see.

Went out for a little ride today in the snow and ice.
