CASFM (Cold As Shit Full Moon)
Got an email from the head guru “Mr Cymbols” Ed Stalling himself to do this death ride on one of our coldest nights of the winter. I thought cool! The rules were simple, no heated seats and protect your nads (if you had any).
I showed up and 5 followed starting with Alden, Aaron, Ed, then Larry. The ride started with the first annual Thursday Night Rides in December Carbo Rocket giveaway which went well. Alden put a pinch between his cheek and gums and went off the front immediately.
Photos were rare. I mean who wants to expose their human flesh to the cold weather and fumble with a pocket camera. I did a couple times. Most of the ride I found my self in a dizzy and blood sugar problem kind of state. Results from not eating well all day and stressing out at work. Thanks Don again for that summer sausage. I ate so much my tongue was num.
We gained the ridge to look at the full moon were Larry reported it was 10 degrees according to his portable weather station attached to his bike. One failure that did take place due to dead batteries was the nifty “where are we in the universe” presentation by Dr. Gadget and his nifty Droid star locator. Bummer, I was looking forward to identifying the moon.
Decent into wind chill took place at the end and according to my calculations we encountered –3245 degrees. Larry magically retained his toes although we were worried he may have lost them to frostbite.
Next week?
