IPhone pics, but this is what we did after Geek was unceremoniously summoned home, I have one spot and one wide cornering,



Lefthand overlooking Boulder Co,





It did start snowing, but nothing was sticking.



Aaron, you have an open invitation.

This is mine after a night of poaching cotton fields. Not quite as scenic as Colorado, but dirt nonetheless:



Baja in April !!

Wow, not much snow up that high. I'm a little jealous. We won't get above 5000 feet till June, maybe July if it's cool.
Studs are fun but you guys have a long riding season on rubber. Light snow year perhaps?

Cotton fields?

Here's how I do it and then use a 6 lead connector.



I'll get some more out to you.

At LHC there was surprisingly little snow, it was a shame Geek couldn't stay out longer, he would have loved the lights there.

I'll be setting up a set of wheels to try studs, I'm just a little sketchy on how they'll do on pavement. So far pretty light, but cold.

I wanted to test a little more and I need to ship to the guys that already picked up a tower, then I'll have a thread in vendors, but after yesterday I think I'm 95% there.

For what you're riding car studs are a good compromise and they're fine on the road. Long studs on the road or hard pack gravel can be scary. They won't last long either. You can borrow my stud gun anytime!

what about the frame mounted fairing pieces? are you going to offer those as well?

[Geek]

I had a couple of lenses with me yesterday and took an arseload of pics (thanks to Paul & Derek for their patience and letting me play with my camera )

Some more random ones:








Here's Paul's current cockpit setup:

[Geek]

Paul: I did get a photo of you sliding through the corner in the snow.. but Derek is standing in the background with his willy in his hand taking a wiz so I decided not to post it

[Geek]

I came up with a solution...



I made the mosaic extra large for Derek's ego
