CR/W MC going e/b on Bluemound Rd. around Calhoun @ 8:30am - I was going w/b, no wave in return...boo.

Maybe my brg is just too stealthy in the morning fog. Although I could uncover the driving lights and announce my presence with the "light of day", but that may cause more problems.

btw, continued motoring on out to the twisties around Holy Hill. Excellent morning for a spirited run - fog and all.

Have a good day motoring,
Rick

SG/W MC coming and going (I think it was the same one) - ~7:40am I43 e/b @ Hwy 164, then again on 894 s/b @ National Ave. ~5:20pm.
edit - nope, the one from the west has a black roof...saw it again this morning (3/27)

SR/W MC s/b I94 in Kenosha ~2:00pm

Excellent day for a drive down to Chicago today. Oddly, I didn't spy any MINIs south of the state line on the I, but I only drove to Rosemont and back.

HO/B MCSC taking I94 W to 894 S interchange, I was behind you a ways, but continued on 94W, so you probably didn't see me ~7:50am.

CR/W MC - Mickey-D's parking lot, Cleveland & Calhoun ~8:15am

CR/W w/ UJ, westbound on Wisconsin Ave bridge over the Miller Valley ~11:50am - I flashed him & got a nod in return.

DS/B w/ stripes - w/b on State St. & 68th ~2pm-ish. We were stopped at a light and he was off my right quarter panel, I was turning left, so didn't get a wave off.

HAPPY EASTER TO YOU!!!

I'm Dark Silver with black bonnet stripes. I wave... even on the highway... I have a MM sticker on the side of my car, and mine and my wife's "intar-web" names on the back.

Welcome to NAM! and Welcome to Motoring.

Welcome to the wonderful world of NAM, MizRuby...hope to see you at some of the MM outings - next one should be the Milwaukee Mile Run on Sun. May 6 - details are on the MM page. Wish I could be there, but the Dragon calls . MINI Mondays are always a good time.

Anyway, back to business...

MY/W checkerboard roof - ~12:35pm turning onto Hwy NN off of 83 in Mukwonago.

Somewhere between hwy 83 and Racine Ave on 43 w/b 5:15 - 5:30pm
DS/B MCS w/stripes
SG/B MC
HO/B MCSC w/stripes

Moe will be hiding in the garage for the next couple of days...no need to expose him to the "white death" that's forecasted.

I heard twelve inches of wet slush predicted... the cynical side of me likes to think they're exaggerating. I guess we'll see soon enough!

I agree with your cynical side, I think they are over estimating this storm.. Well... I hope they are, cause my baby is staying in the garage until its over! Is to much to ask for a nice sunny day so I can enjoy my new car? I mean it IS spring..

Spotted a DS/W MCS turning onto Story/46th from Bluemound heading into Miller Park around 6pm last night for the Angels/Indians game. I was riding in a nondescript Honda Accord so I did not wave. (Also, it was in the midst of the "wintry mix" so visibility was very poor.)

Incidentally, it was a very lively crowd given that the Brewers weren't playing!
