2Far ★ Posted January 18, 2020 Share #7 Posted January 18, 2020 Syracuse? Ugh, it even snows in the summer in ‘cuse. Used to hitchhike thru there on my way back & forth to madstoP, it was always cloudy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lack of sleep will just take the edge off of Paulie. All his nervous energy will be gone.

The thruway between Syracuse and Rochester is IMO the worst snow road I've ever driven While you may be right, it’s a drive I do all the time. Relatively flat, and not too curvy. I-81 in the Lake Ontario snowbelts and in the Pennsylvania Hills can be crazier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relatively flat, and not too curvy. I-81 in the Lake Ontario snowbelts and in the Pennsylvania Hills can be crazier. You could be correct. I found the thruway to be very blackiceish on numerous occasions. On one, I came around a gentle corner to find the road completely blocked except in the very center of two cars spinning in opposite directions. One touch of the brakes demonstrated that as a failure option so I gently steered toward the center of the spinning cars to minimize the speed of the upcoming impact. By some odd chance they both spun in such a manner as to create a gap through which I went. I think it took about another quarter mile to stop and check to see if I needed to change my pants. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had that same experience on 895 approaching the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel, only the cars spun shut as we got to them. We went right through them, spinning them the opposite way, and coasted on another 1/4 mile until we stoppped. 25 more cars piled up behind us. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airehead Posted January 18, 2020 Author Share #20 Posted January 18, 2020 And to keep the streak of chaos alive, no Q for Lindy in his first run. He decided instead to watch what was going on outside the ring. No idea why, this is not normally his style. Ryan in soon. Judge is slower than molasses outside today. He also doesn’t seem to like his work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
