Hey, it misted a little bit here in Santa Cruz (Bay Area CA.) Can't
really call it rain, but it brought all the old oil to the surface of
the road. Got the "Beast" to slip one wheel jest a leeeeetle bit and
also got a few ABS pulses too. I was just driving fairly sedately. Kinda
fun. Scary to think about all the 2wd no ABS cars out there though.
