    Default Share your trip to work today

    Mine started out nice and easy. My truck is dangerous in the went let alone the damn snow/ice. I was cruising about 35 most the way and went into the other lane twice so I brought it down to 25. There is NOOOo weight to the back of my truck. Then I am approaching a large hill with a right bank turn and there's a brand new benz about 150-200 ft in front of me. I'm steadily approaching her when she decides to HIT THE MOTHER FUCKING BRAKES while going UP HILL. So I started to slow down but not to much b/c I didn't want to go in the other lane. So she slams on the brakes and I come about 2" from her. Instead of steadily accelerating she punches the throttle which just makes her spin and then she slams on the brakes again.

    A m3 was at a light making a left and he took the turn nice and slow and good thing he did b/c a camry came the other direction sliding and slamming into a curb. I'm sure he was glad about that.

    Tell us about your stories.

    I got up... answered the door (It was a contractor came to quote me on a new roof) After he left, I walked to the computer.... Nothing exciting. He told me that hills had black ice on them. I won't be leaving unless a customer calls me or something.

    You serious? LULZ. No, I only bring the bike to the V now.

    Check the new members section, there's a new X-runner guy with a blue/black wheels XR. Different grill though. Was it him?

    Oh yeah, if the tag don't say BADPOPO, it wasn't me.

    My 7 minute cruise up P'tree Ind to Sugarloaf to Old Peachtree to Sever Rd was utterly boring. The most excitement was walking from my car to the office. I almost slipped and met the asphalt.

    Unless you are on backroads here you are good. Turning lanes and emergency lanes are still icy as fuck but thats it. The parking lot at my work was FUNNNNN last night. Got a lil e-brake action going on before leaving work so now one side of my car is really nasty. That and the shit they spray on the roads is ALL OVER my windshield and my washer fluid is frozen so seeing is a challenge hahaha

    Got stuck on a icy hill on my way home last night. Tried to go slow but it just wasn't happening. Decide to turn around and start skidding out control. Brakes are no help and i'm still sliding. Heading towards curbage, i turn into the skid and regain control before heading smack into the curb. Falken Azenis def. don't like snow and ice.

    Clayco schools are closed which means no work for me.

    I'm still in bed turning over twice for all you suckers who have work today. I have been too lazy to open my curtians and see if it actually did snow.

    i drove down 101 between rockmart and villa rica. people didn't realize that you cant stop half way going up a hill or you will just spin. 6 cars were also off in the ditch.

    also like you Ant i put down way to much power in my truck to be driving in this. the slightest tap of the throttle put my sideways.

    Slept late.

    Made coffee.

    Ate peanut butter crunch(WHY THE HELL DON'T THEY MAKE "OOPS, ALL BERRIES" CAP'N CRUNCH ANYMORE?!?!)

    Fed the dog, took him out to pee/poo.

    Warmed up car.

    Started the 35 minute commute down to Tucker.

    Hit an ice patch on spaghetti junction, felt a little like Rhys Millen. lol.

    Parked car in snowy/icy parking lot at work.

    Thought about whether or not I'd be able to get out of said parking lot later.

    Walked into work, got on IA.

    No work today but I braved the weather to go to the gym... FWD drifted twice, saw a civic SI try to be cool and launch at a light, too bad he didn't lose control... Lots of people at the gym today...
