					<description><![CDATA[[&#8230;] When I got back to the Vespa scooter a 4WD pickup truck came down the road and stopped to warn me not to attempt going further. The farther up the mountain the worse is gets they told me. I needed no such warning and turned around to head for home. I&#8217;ve been on the ice before and have had my fill.

I&#039;m always on the look out for ice when the temperature drops toward the freezing mark.  They don&#039;t seem to ever run out of salt here.  It&#039;s like there is a bottomless salt pit somewhere.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[+6C at noon today and the big melt is on. But the winter crud on the roads would make riding, though possible, totally disgusting. 

Watch for re-frozen melt. It&#039;s a huge road hazard, especially because the winter salt budgets are close to exhausted, so you can&#039;t count on salt crews to defend you. 

Be safe.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;But if you are going to take part in crazy, ugly riding, you had better polish your skills and let go of your attachment to a shiny clean machine.&quot;

yep, that&#039;s for sure....when things are &quot;slushy&quot; the rig arrives back home covered in a wet goo that if not already dry, will dry to a crust quickly.  The splashing about on three wheels is fun for the most part, sluicing down the rig afterwards.....boring but calming.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s amazing how much different things are there from where I live, one hundred miles north of you. Temperatures have only been in the frigids at night and it&#039;s 10 degrees now at 7:30 in the morning. Yesterday it rose into the mid-thirties for the first time in a while. I got to see the first &quot;Harley of Spring&quot; yesterday when an anxious Sportster owner passed my house. I guess he was just dying to get it out of the garage.]]></description>

Glad I could add a bit of positive energy to the otherwise grim winter.  We&#039;re looking at a week or more of weather in the forties and maybe hit the 50s...

I am so, so very sick of winter.]]></description>
