Default Getting ready to ride again (PICS)

Well its been 3 weeks, officially the longest I have gone without riding since I brought the bike home in November of 05. Stinking snow. Its mostly melted around town, but the road up to work is still mostly covered, and I decided that a few more days and I will be able to get back to normal, whatever that is. But first I had to dig out a place to get my bike through to the loading dock. So I grabbed the good old Stihl 044 and proceeded to cut out a path. then I had to dig it all out, some of it was still pretty frozen.

Sheesh I haven't worked like this at work for a long time.

I drove the truck to work for the last 14 days in a row, that's more than I drove it the last 8 months.

I hope we are done with this garbage.

You do know they make these things called "snowblowers", right?



And for when you get a lot - they have some big *** ones too...



And even some you can bolt on to the front of your Gator...



And for your airport... (btw - this is a Kawasaki)
