I think I would just drive my cage.

Damn i am glad i live in Florida!  

Why? Does the temp not go down in Florida when you make long trips north?

Ozz keep checking the road conditions, I know the get snow in the passes on the 5 between Redding and Grants Pass.

Ski goves with thin rubber gloves inside of them works good for your hands.

But will they protect your hands in a fall?

All very good advice...thanks valium for the offer, man thats awsome of you...

I think I can score the packs at the hunting shop here. I will for sure be gett'in some.

scootergirl, very good advice, the highest point I must cross is about 2000 ft.or so...and ya, ice is on my mind but I think I should be o.k...the couple of passes I have to go over are fairly short distances, does'ent take to long, so I think I can get thru it o.k. but I will keep your words in mind when I cross. I know this could be a bit of risk in the cold but honestly I kinda of enjoy the challange.

Tio Loco, I hear ya about the fog...I rode to work today in some and it aint no fun. I have an even colder ride home tonight so I can sorta gage how it will be to some extent. I am gonna be watch'in the weather real close before I leave and if it turns out to be the pea soup varity I think I will abort...that's just to dangerous for me.

GSXTacy, I already have one...that puppy is going with me for sure.

ike, thanks for the link on widder.

Thanks Gunny, I will definitely be check'in the conditions...I'm just hope'in its gone to be fair.

Thanks Glyn, we have a new shop here in town called Throttle Wear and I plan on drop'in some coin there for some new gloves and maybe a vest to this weekend.

Busa Wizard, Drive my cage, thats blasphemy

just kidd'in...if the weather don't hold the cage it will be...(please Al Roker, tell me what I want to hear).

And again, thankyou so much for your advice all...I will take some photo's on this ride to share when I get home...now if the weather holds i'm off on the 26th for Merlin Oregon.....

brothers and sisters

If you go have a safe trip and be very careful. I just got out of the way of a huge patch of ice across a lane yesterday. I cleared it by about 4 inches. Lucky I gave myself enough room between me and the car in front of me to be able to see it just in time. Today I made sure I was even more careful. Be safe and have fun.
