Title: Counter-Challenge to 2SB's "Cold Weather Challenge"
Post by: jprestonian on December 16, 2012, 03:38:47 AM

I love those guys (http://2strokebuzz.com/2012/11/27/201213-cold-weather-challenge)... I really do. But I think we need a cold weather challenge that doesn't require a 2-stroke, manual, metal-bodied scooter to participate (http://scootercalledwanda.blogspot.com/2012/12/only-because-that-other-site-are-being.html).

Better get yourself an airmail envelope for my GS model  ;D still riding to work everyday (well apart from only 2 days this winter).

Been at -7°c so far but its still to get worse over Dec-Jan. Will post up some pics and a map once it gets really cold  :D

Sorry, didn't realize they were links, thought they were just a change in font/ink color.

I like the idea but I'm out, I'll post my temps but can't compete with places like Minn. so I conceed defeat. Also my 4s may not qualify me and also trip lenght. 6 miles in my case.
