It was a lot of fun, as long as you don't get stuck, or wreck!
Had a lot more fun off camera The only close call was comming to a stop light on a downhill slope at the end of derby parkway and hwy 11 (for people that know the area) I stopped just fine but the truck behind me started a slow sideways slide towards me, I made sure it was clear and ran the light to avoid being hit.

Other than that it was a blast. Not much ice on the pavement just light snow accumulations. The roads only had accumulation for about about 4 hours. Thats the most snow we have seen since 1993 where it lasted over a week and was over 12"

The head was not hard to put on, just lifted it up there and had someone hold it steady while I packed snow around the neck area to "weld" it in place.

If I would have had a XXXL RCC shirt I would have put it on the snowman!
