Default Baby, it's cold out there!

Here's the airplane. Notice the icicles hanging off the Agwagon in the
background....

Okay, now that we know that Ron is certifiably crazy, let's talk about
riding motorcycles in the winter. I saw a college kid riding a Yamaha
this morning, with the temperature right around zero. No face
protection, cheeks bleeding-red, obviously on the verge of death.
Dumber than a box of rocks, God bless him. Hope he made it to class.

Speaking of dumb, Mary and I rode our Goldwing through Yellowstone in
the snow, 19 years ago this year. Nothing like riding with your feet
skimming the icy road like outriggers, hoping that your next turn
isn't your last...

Ah, youth. It's wasted on the young...
