I was on the road and they actually had I-80 closed around Laramie where I spent Sunday night. Then I hit some really sketchy stuff on C-470 last night coming home.

When I changed the tires Friday I told the guys "I never do it this early, you watch, I'll get stuck in some snow storm."

So it's all my fault. Sorry guys. ;-)

Hope Bandimere is still on tomorrow!

was driving from Park City to SLC down Parleys Canyon on I-80. About 2-3 inches of a snow/slush mix. The tires did ok, given that they are summer tires. I also made sure to go slow and give myself extra room.

But I would in no way want to drive on ice with those tires.

I was going very slow of 64th Avenue near McIntyre street. The car spun too fast for me to react and I did an axle spinout in the middle of the intersection just east of McIntyre. Wee!

I learned that I should probably leave winters on until at least the middle of april.
