fun night

went to the nut with a decent group: cp3, marky-mark, myself and my ladyfriend and chad met us there.
i rode pretty crappy but ended up getting a shot or two. chip was trying new stuff on skis and skiing well, chads the man with the vision and the camera, and marky-mark is the second week in a row with a wrist injury.

It took us 5.5 hours to get home. Sporty driving to say the least. Everything was fine until the last 30 miles or so. It had been snowing/raining/slushing in champaign all day and we knew it would be bad. But this was probably the worst weather I have ever driven in. The worst part was the wind! We dont get wind like that in Maine. It was gusting sideways (probably 40mph or faster) and blowing all the cars around on the icy/snowy road. Not good. My car with the box is pretty much a big sail haha. We saw a total of 3 semi's and probably a dozen other cars off the road. We actually ended up spinning a 360 on the highway and spun into the breakdown lane by the median, but I was able to just keep going. Might have needed to change my diaper after that one. We had a big caravan of semi's trucks and suv's all going 15-20mph with hazards on. Finally made it home. Slow and steady won the race tonight. I LOVE MY CAR.

maybe a clip later in the week.
maybe seshing our rail tomorrow on campus with the new snow/slush.
night
