I am in Chanhassen on business right now. I forgot how spoiled we are in Boise with the weather. Our snow is usually gone in 48 hours. You year rounders in MN have my respect (and a little jealousy).

That a person visiting from Boise in December is spoiled is particularly disheartening. Damn I need to move.

heh heh, I got the Nokians too, the Hakkpakkawakkawakka er something like that. They're great in the packed snow, but I float and shimmy in loose power.

I have a vision in my head... LOL

Have to go ride home now... Have a good night!

I'll try some floating and shimmying too! :D

I should clarify that my previous post had nothing to do with the way my bike handles. :lol:

Sawtooth, You're missing the best weather of the year in Boise. 14F with 15MPH winds Tues morning. Not much snow though.

Glad to be back. Missed the commute this morning due to a super late flight and an early meeting. Oh well.
