riding in the snow

**SethO** · 10-30-2009, 10:30 PM

The ride to work tonight was epic, glad I had my rain gloves on, the thumb wipers are a absolute must, the snow made it so I could not see after 30 seconds of riding, plus after a few minutes the snow was stuck on the wipers on the gloves so you have to wipe them off on your pants.

What a great picture, one good reason for not haing a windshield that you look through instead of over, A big thumbs up to ya.

I don't know how bad it would be with a big shield but on the tar it does well in the slush. I am driving home at 5am from work will tell how it does on half and half ice, going to try to drive thru december.

I have been told that soo many times, but this night and morning at 5am when I came home I thought someone was going to call that in, I'm a 911 dispatcher so I have to listen to crazy idiot know it all's in between real calls.

the ride home was kinda crazy where the snow had blown across the traction control when nuts, but I suppose it was ice at 5am,

got to do something can't sit around and collect unemployment.If there no risk theres no fun.

the isci handbrake works as good in this weather as it does in normal conditions, I know I was shying away from their stuff because of the price but now that I have it I can see why they cost a little more. I am trying to hit 20k for miles this year so I have to ride everyday, handicrapp life and work keep getting in the way.

Even in the Great White North, you gotta be one of the toughest SOB's around. I going to save these pictures and send them to the next person that starts complaining about how tough they have things.

**SpyderWolf** · 10-31-2009, 05:59 PM

Good pictures. Glad to hear you are able to ride it safely in the snow. Hopefully it will remain that way for you.

Those are beautiful images and would love to see them a little bigger.
It's amazing to see the conditions this vehicle can handle and its awesome owners.

I have a few bigger pics but they is a limit on uploaded size, I will email them to ya if you want,

riding in today at 30 degrees was chilly but the spyder likes the cold are, if you can heat the tire up enough to push it. I think it might be time for a new fuel filter.

I don't want to discount your "handicrapp" in a any way, but it seems to me that you're existing and living equal to and beyond what many others are doing. Keep up the challenges and God bless you.

you should have seen me before I got hurt, you learn a hella lot about yourself when you can't feel below your chest. There were days that I wish I would have done more, there are days that I need to do more like this, when only 40% of your body moves it takes an unbelievable amount of time to do simple things, Drives ya crazy. But I do as much I can, but not as much as I should. Anyone wants to come up and tear around just give me a heads up.

Seth, you set some pretty high standards for the rest of us to live up to.

Thanks!

Tom
