I casually rolled back from my company HQ south of EC this evening. 100% after sun down on 2-lane 37N to 94E and then 94E to DT St. Paul. Averaged ~70mph despite suspect roads and nearly 100% WI drivers in trucks, cars, etc. I hit the east side of St. Paul and my world crumbles getting progressively worse all the way to my exit off of 394/Xenia in SLP. The road conditions in lesser-traveled WI were far worse and with no overhead lighting. In the Twin Shiddies it was as though folks were being asked to drive on marbles lubricated with motor oil. Lame. I flew past countless AWD cars and trucks like they were standing still. Certainly at least a few had snow tires. I'm not an aggressive driver (i.e. zero tickets/clean record) but what a bunch of Nancy boys/girls out there... MN Drivers, you generally fail. Sean
Come up to the Sierras some time. Minnesota ain't got nothing on Bay area drivers in the snow. However, this is more doing above the speed limit in white-out on no-seasons in SUVs on a downhill.
I always chuckle when Georgia gets like an inch of snow. They then proceed to shut down the entire state, declare an emergency, and sell out every snowblower in the state. :laugh:
I park it in the heated smoking lounge area thingy next to the front door. It IS a smoker, after all.
ryan, shorten, shibbs, other Westsyders chime in? I'd ask Subiedave, but he bros out with Tohrnahnooz on Mondays!
Hillbillys in their all their trucks are also chicken **** down here in hickville. Since my beater has no power, I drag race in the snow at stoplights:naughty:
Yes, some jagoff hoon in a Grand Cherokee in DT St Paul and nearly stuffed himself twice much to my amusement trying to impress with his AWD with all season tyres. Funny stuff.
Can go pretty late. Actually, for me, the later the better, I think Mug Club gives deal all night after 7pm. Not a bad deal, especially during NFL season.
I'd be in for that, I'm usually there most Wednesday nights also. Did we have a time in mind for said meet?
You know they had the winter olympics in the Sierras, right? They get more snow ina weekend than we get in a year.
Ah, yes, but most of the *******s are up there every other weekend (creating a traffic jam on my freeway)
It was the exact same in North Carolina, but you also forgot that they INSTANTLY sell completely out (and I literally mean every single one) of 1) bottled water, 2) milk, 3) bread, 4) toilet paper. They actually had to come on TV at one point in Charlotte after a winter storm came through telling people to stop calling 911 because their cable TV was out. Ironic, yes I know.......:roll: -Steve
