Luminara Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 I hate being cold, but I love winter. The view outside of my door is like a Christmas card when it snows, young pines covered in snow, the ground white and shining. I wait all year for the snow, every year, since I built my cabin. It's glorious to behold. It's worth the discomfort of wet socks or having to ride a motorcycle in December, as far as I'm concerned. Remembering the beauty and wonder of winter is what makes me a happy person, keeps Christmas in my heart year-round. They can get around to turning on the snow in-game whenever. I want the real thing. I need my Christmas postcard fix. 3 1 2 1 Get busy living... or get busy dying. That's goddamn right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have it lady, if I want winter I'll google a picture of it.😁 I used to love it, going snowboarding, snowball fights, fireside with cocoa, but, as I get older the discomfort of being cold outweighs my love of those past things.. Although a mountain view of snow covered peaks is nice. https://www.twitch.tv/boomie373 The Revenants twitch channel, come watch us face plant, talk smack, and attempt to be world class villains.

Last winter some grey slush made a 'drift' against the fence about an inch deep, then melted in the rain a couple of hours later. Paragon City is probably my best hope for winter scenery.

I don't want to be outside in it. I'm 5'6" and 130 lbs, I don't have the body fat to play in the snow, or the boots/shoes to keep my feet dry and warm (the woes of self-imposed poverty). But I adore seeing it, and I'll tolerate it cheerfully, because it's beautiful and serene. I spent most of the last 30 years living in cities, living with social anxiety disorder, living with the feeling of not being able to be happy, being afraid to stop to enjoy something as simple as a dandelion, a robin, a snowfall. My life is different now, and I've got decades of enjoyment to make up for. BRING ON THE SNOW! ❤️ 24 minutes ago, Grouchybeast said: Last winter some grey slush made a 'drift' against the fence about an inch deep, then melted in the rain a couple of hours later.

Or else! 4 Get busy living... or get busy dying. That's goddamn right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its like ridng wearing an electric blanket 🙂 And Cycle Gear usually has deals this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twisted Toon Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Gortex pants, a thermal shirt, t-shirt, flannel shirt, leather jacket, 2 scarves, and 2 pairs of socks generally worked to keep me warm during the winter on my bike.

But I'd have to replace the stator (only 6 pole), and... well, at least half of my riding is on unpaved county back roads. I had an accident, went sideways on another bike three years ago, it suddenly turned over and pinned my legs under it, slammed me onto ground at 30 mph and broke my left arm and collar bone. I'd rather be thrown clear if (when) it happens again, instead of being tied to the bike. Especially this bike, it's twice as heavy. I absolutely can't have broken legs, not when I have to walk down to the stream to fetch water every couple of days. 9 hours ago, Twisted Toon said: Gortex pants, a thermal shirt, t-shirt, flannel shirt, leather jacket, 2 scarves, and 2 pairs of socks generally worked to keep me warm during the winter on my bike. I just placed an order for new winter riding gloves (mine are ten years old) and a scarf (can't find the one i had). With a thick coat and two pair of pants, and wool socks, I stay pretty warm. Not having the scarf last year was the worst. I'm ready for winter! Oh, wait, I need to download all of my Christmas music... winter event, then Christmas music, and hopefully lots of snow! Oh, crap, I only have one box of hot cocoa mix. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! PANIC! PANIC! 1 2 Get busy living... or get busy dying. That's goddamn right.

I'm pretty sure the SAE connector would separate in event of an off, but yeah, its hard to be tethered when you need to ride on the pegs 🙂 And glad you are okay. My other recommendation is Duluth Trading Company fleece lined work pants. One of the best purchases I ever made, especially now that I'm a Colorado resident. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rejolt Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Halloween started in 2019 on Oct.1 and ended On Oct. 31ish (I believe the morning of Nov. 1). Halloween 2020 started on a Tuesday (Oct. 6 and lasted through Nov. 3 - so 4 weeks) Nov. 29 (per The Warpact's post) in 2019 would have it start the weekend after Thanksgiving but Dec. 31st was a Tuesday last year so the event ending on a server reset makes sense at least. This year Dec. 1 is a Tuesday and Dec. 31 is a Thursday. If they go 4 weeks this year it could be Dec. 8 to Jan. 5. If you're worrying about missing a few days there we did have the Mender Derek event over the Summer. 2 Thanks for D-Sync Enhancements! Just wish things like Resist/End, Heal/End and Damage/Mez had a third stat that made them more viable. Suggestions - add Recharge to Ribosomes, Range to Golgis, and Slows to Peroxisomes. These changes would allow for an endurance cost/range, recharge/endurance, and slow/mez or slow/damage enhancements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
