    Some of you know that I have a goal of taking up powered paragliding so obviously I follow some feeds about it and related. This is amazing and scary. The LEDs are wired into the wing itself.

    he said he immediately regretted his decision as he was trying to walk the bike up a tight ally while trying not to slip on all the ice.

    but was there a layer of ice underneath the snow? that's always our biggest problem. we always have freezing rain before the snow starts. makes for some really slick roads.

    No, it was warm enough the roads were just wet. It turned to rain about an hour later. I try to avoid riding in icy conditions, but a little snow is fun.

    I would hope its not a repair, more like a patch to get home. If that was a permanent fix then Id be worried, a temp repair is a good McGyverism;)

    Chevy Cruise concept, because manual overrides are overrated

    GM "says the vehicle is production-ready and has formally asked the US Department of Transportation for permission to start testing it on public roadways beginning next year."
