Well, actually there was one- My R80ST with Motorvation Spyder 'hack. But I saw a Harley, and he didn't have any 'hack to hold the bike up on the rare slippery bits.
Are we getting soft? Used to be anytime the temp got above freezing I'd see a bunch of BMW riders on the road while the Harley riders cowered in their 4x4 pickups. Granted, the Harley riders outnumber us. But their Harleys are made of pig iron that collapses in a pile of rust at the mere mention of road salt. Our beemers are made of sturdier stuff, aluminum and "tupperware" that can laugh at anything short of some really nasty HazMat.
So let's get out there and enjoy the thaw- we have a reputation to uphold!
