  • Leftover powder on the road is a different beast. It’s often mixed up with a little bit of sand, and it’s been crushed into a powder that doesn’t feel like natural snow at all. It doesn’t stick and it slips like fine sand. Not a fun time. A little pile of 2-3 cm of the stuff was enough to almost make me completely lose control last year. Scary stuff.


  • Hmm, i see.

    I’ll have a new bike with different winter tires this year but last year my bike would get dangerously destabilized by the smallest amount of leftover powder snow trail from the snow clearing machines, so I stayed well away from uncleared roads.

    But for one, as you say, that was forgetting about how uncleared snow is not the same, and also, new tires this year.

    I’ll give it a try next time. It’ll probably be safer to avoid the cars for a little bit longer anyway.

    There should be a way to make it simpler.

    Idk, something like “for USB 4 you NEED all of these”.

    Or maybe USB 4 with levels like bronze, silver, etc.

    Or make displaying data rate, display and charging capabilities all mandatory on all ports…

    I’m not sure what, but “it’s a USB port; look in the manual and if you’re lucky you might learn what it does exactly” ain’t it.
