That's why I don't like to ride in the snow.

The rider was smart enough to be going that slow in the snow........................but dumb to be riding in the snow in the first place.

Given the light dusting of snow, I rather imagine that his was a failure to consult the weather. An error that could have cost him dearly (and cost him his dear). I agree, he came out lucky.

Still stupid, but lucky...

been in snow/ice only twice now....  the last time i was in snow it was not sticking (except to our visors and windshields), and we were able to get of the mountain really quick.  The time before that...
