That is why I don't ride up Mt Lemmon in the winter time. In the summer when its 110 degrees in the valley we ride up there to cool off.

Sorry the guy went down, hope hes ok. I dont know about people that ride without the proper gear. You never know when something is going to happen. You wouldnt catch me dead on a bike wearing a pair of penny loafers on my feet.

idiot.

In the mountains you can never trust the roads.

Even in July there may happen frosty nights above 8.000 ft.

Who doesn't know shouldn't dwell there.

I can't say anything.  I ride in sneakers far too often.  At least his loafers matched his bike.  Color coordination is important after all....

Too true Spyder.  Done my share.  But never in loafers and slacks.  I'm just nowhere near cool enough to pull that look off.
