You all are lucky you didn't take the toll road route I did; solid wall of fog from Windy Ridge down to past the 133 split; even with fog lights on and wipers going, some places I had to slow to around 30 just to find the lane lines.

I got a free "spot-free rinse" out of the deal, but it got me there about 15 minutes later than planned. All worked out OK, though. Great day!

Sorry I was leading and if i left anyone behind my fault... i like to take turns fast...

My speedo reads in km/h so i didnt know if i was going 65 or 80 it was about 115km/h average. So what ever that was thats how fast I was going.

Oh man... when I left out the back there was a motorcycle cop staring me down with my lumpy idle. He got on his bike and creeped up to where I was about to turn like he was going to follow me but then at the last second him and another motocop got a 1st gen.

When I was leaving the bike cop was waiting next to the exit, but my coolant buzzer went off so I pulled into the lot across the street to add some. When I headed back out he was pulling over the 1st gen.

When I was leaving it was a 1st gen in the front making a left at the light, then the bike cop, and finally me. As soon as the 1st gen makes the left the cop just lights up. I was like thats messed up.
