That's an interesting tip Mike............  My actual snowmobile helmet has double paned windshield..  All these helmets have great ventilation, the one in the photo has actual 'defrosters' and a switchable inlet right in the chin area.  Again, only good when moving!    

Time to do the cooling fan mod to your helmet.

snow seal works great....preheat your oven to the lowest temp .

place your boots in oven ..after 10 minutes pull your boots out and

apply snow seal..repeat this step 3-4 times your new leather riding boots

Will broken in and waterproof ...

Johnson & Johnson baby shampoo works well for fogging.. just rub some on the inside and polish it off...

I haven't heard that one before, might try it someday. My snowmobile visor is heated, so I'm usually ok there. On a motorcycle I just crack open the visor. On the race track I might make a duct tape wedge to keep the visor open slightly. It's a fine line though, you sure don't want the visor forced open while at speed, which can happen if air gets underneath it.

URI about done, tooth extraction healing.  First day I've felt okay in a while.   Thanks for asking Carl. 

How do you locate/pm members now?  Want to send Chuck a message and see if he is ok.  Maybe just bored with us:o

Haven't had the bubble started in a week:mellow: 

Getting down to 26 Thursday morning:huh:

Hey Mike....let us know if you run short of coffee.  Cabin fever would probably do me in.  How does Gia like the snow?

Gia's inside safe and sound.. Coffee rations are doing fine for now !! 

I have a bag and a half left...I'm getting a little nervous on the third pot now today..

This has been around.  According to Snopes, it's not really a Presidential Limo (note the mags) or Secret Service training.  Nonetheless, the driving is amazing.

 

 

that's insane what was the lap time?
