Melting Snow Means Fog (And Maybe No Riding)
The first heavy snow of the season has come and gone. And so has my interest in riding. The snow is melting and with it wet, dreary fog has developed. It’s the sort of weather that lends itself for mysterious photographs and mystical scenes across the landscape. But I’ve left the Vespa scooter in the garage. Pulled this photo from a ride a couple years ago. Things look much the same now save we’re having a little more fog.
Fog and riding a Vespa scooter. Usually a perfect mix for me. But not today. Or even this week.
I have been thinking about it though. Read through an old post that reflects on the winter riding experience triggered by a ride to work at -8F. If you’re interested in riding after everyone else puts their scooter or motorcycle away, you may want to read SUB ZERO RIDING EDUCATION.
