I know this is a little past due, but here goes.

My routine for Black Friday is to get out of town.

This is a Federal road that is 18 miles long.
A little snow left over.

At the end of the road is a lake, make a left, and go to the overlook.

Still some wet road so I turned around here.
Just a nice little 80 mile ride.

Yeah, I really like to ride in the winter time.

One with the GZ from 2009.

When I was living in the UK and working I used to have to ride to work in the Winter. Can't say I enjoyed the snow, ice and fog, especially as I worked a three shift system; 6amx2pm; 2pmx10pm and 10pmx6am.

Nowadays, living in Southern Spain I can ride all year, and I do and I love it.

Yeah, a lot of difference in having to and want to.

Looks like a great way to spend Black Friday. Granted your missing your chance to punch someone in an argument over a $4 toaster, but there's always next year for that.
