OK it was more like a really really powerful hail but there sure is lots of white stuff on the ground! And what would a BF member do in this situation? That's right I went out and biked in it. The neighbors were calling out the window that I was crazy and then asked if there was traction, NOPE but if you don't hit the brakes or swerve you're good. My first time in snow, pretty creepy how the brakes lock up the wheels into a skid so fast! Maybe first and only time biking in snow and slush. Here is my proof, not enough for a full snowman plus it is too fricken cold to play in the snow any more.

Isn't that the mashed potato mountain where the aliens from Close Encounters landed? Riding in snow is fun. Wear gloves next time and do a bunch of turn n skid stops. It's fun.

Sweet! That means snow in Sactown in a few hours. Where are my Nokians?

it's thunder & lightning around here, very, very unusual. I'm gonna go for a run on the beach in the rain and watch the lightning over the ocean... :)

Dam dam balls crap $#*& %^@% ass dam stupid i hate this. rain in VERMONT, snow in SUNNY SAN FRAN. Dont get me started, My advice, buy land 35' above sea level and build a nice big front porch and watch the water rise.



What, you think i am joking? Just you wait, kayakboy will be proven right. I'll be the one with the huge sail boat laughing.
