its already been ridden be-otch. This thing is actually wide enough for you and Brian to even ride. Though it does violate your policy of never being more than 12" above the ground while on your bike.
Actually, I was riding my bike on it as FEMA & the national guard were driving past the house in a HumV convoy inspecting the damage.......I got some strange looks, some laughs and a thumbs up from one of the drivers.

You would need to have to cut a nice flat platform on top of that before I would ride it.
I wouldn't have that removed if I was you. I'll be over this weekend to try it out...

Bring some beer with you.
getting crushed by a thunderstorm in Kennebunk right now. Not worth attempting driving down the highway.

Here we go again...:sad:
I think it was fairly minor. I saw some rain and lightning but nothing like the last storm. Not even close.
definitely no where near as bad, but still pretty rough apparently.
A motorcyclist died in the storm

After the deluge of rain that fell on my house hit with that storm, I now need to spend some time this weekend returning the mulch that I spread around the planting beds at my house from the middle of my lawn back to the planting beds :smash: 
driving up 84 to the mass pike, the swath that this thing cut is so distinct and precise its amazing. You can see the path down the hillside, through a marshy area, a smashed hotel on the other side of 84 and then more barkless mangled trees. couldnt believe what it looked like and this was a month and a half later.

Yup, its still an amazing sight! As is downtown Springfield too. This past Saturday as I was drivng down I-91 through Springfield. Just before you get to the basketball hall of fame, if you look to the left you can see a swath of homes/buildings maybe 100yards wide or so, where the majority of the rooves still have blue tarps covering up the roof damage and a bunk of collapsed portions of brick walls
You'll be able to see that damage for years. The damage to the forests from the fatal tornado we had here in NH in 2008 is still clear as day.
This was last Tuesday up on Lake Sunapee. It was a nice looking outflow from an approaching t-storm. It looked like a funnel cloud but there was no indicated rotation--most likely just low level cloud fragments or scud layer being pushed up from the outflow boundary, enhanced a bit as it brushed along the hills. Got some gusty winds (non-severe) and rain--that was about it.

great shot? make you nervous?
after all these fatal tornadoes this year, if I saw that, I'd be tempted to head to the basement.
