I was also stuck in that Penn Avenue traffic jam trying to get to a cul-de-sac right off of South Dallas Avenue from a restaurant in Shadyside. The order was 10 minutes late, and the customer (as was the case with most of my customers last night) was miffed. Next time I'll invest in a hover-car to keep the yinzer masses happy I suppose.

I got done at about quarter after three . . . got home and parked 'er for the night and let everyone else deal with those people.

Captain, you da man. I ride all year around myself, but have missed a few days this year. I did ride in that really windy snowstorm we had a while back. That was not the greatest. Today, looks like a great day to ride and be outdoors in the beautiful snow. It is so bright and cheerful!!

I will be locked down in my basement during the storm. Plan to eat white bread, raw eggs, milk, and clean my guns.

I did the "Reverse Keg Ride" from OTB Cafe on the south side to East End Brewery I believe in November on a very snowy, wet cold morning

People like you don't understand the theory of keeping up your vehicles traction and momentum in snow. This is where the timidness of area drivers really shows

I'm talking about ice, not snow. There's a difference. And if you've ever been here to Athens, I drove down Baxter Street toward the University of Georgia on a solid sheet of ice when I was 17 years old and had no problem. I took it very, very slow down the hill.

LMAO!

The best way to survive a blizzard is by drinking milk and eating scrambled-egg sandwiches.
