It probably won't stick to the roads. Probably...
That just isn't right. Normally after I put my Winter tires on the weather turns insanely nice...
Happend again this year. 10 days ago I put the Nokia W106's on my bike since the weather forecast called for light frozen precipitation for that Monday. For that Wednesday and Thursday there was a chance for a few inches for snow. I knew the snow would never stick around for long, but it is not unusualy to get some nasty thick slushy snow right around Halloween. As luck would have it, that Monday is just rained a little and that Wednesday and Thursday the snow stay about 30 miles South of where I live. Then the weather just got to be rediculous. It has been sunny and glorious each day. Today we are hitting 71F... this is November in Buffalo
I'll take nice weather.
So puting the snow tires on for me usually ends up with a very nice week of weather... go figure. I bet if I had not put the snow tires on, I'd have gotten stuck at work by some freak snow storm.
Happy riding,
André
