Highway #1 Question For Right Now 12:09am may9

[2BLUE]

Has anyone driven highway #1 tonight ?

If so are the roads any good?

I just got a call saying my uncle is in the hospital and i got to ride out there right now...on my bike!!! Im fully suited so warmth is no problem slick roads could be an issue.

Im ridding to golden so any info would be great!!!!!

Im leaving in 30mins so any and all info would be great!!!

On a bike? Not a chance In hell I'd be going.

Check out the Highway forecasts on Weather.ca

doesn't look like riding weather

[ralliart_girl]

Dude, I don't think it would be a good idea...the heavy snowfall warning is until the morning. Are you sure you can't borrow someone's car at least?

[HuMz]

Besides the fact you can look outside and see the snow and wetness,

That was at 6:30pm and chances are its gotten worse since, the logical thing to do would be not drive a bike in this weather essp on the highway.

Wouldnt chance it, unless you wanted to end up beside him.

Get a friend/family to drive you out there.

Dude, it was hard in my G35 with traction control at 60kms an hour. I would not chance it, however, i understand your situation.

But I still wouldnt chance it.

[jdmXSI]

Good luck and God Speed if you decide to go!!!

[InLoveWitRSX]

dont go please..

[Benny]

Would your uncle want you ripping out to Golden in this fucking awful weather on a bike?

[kvanderlaag]

Hope everything turns out okay for you.

Good luck.

Well after a huge fight and after everything that was said on here he still left. He's very close to his uncle. His uncle isn't going to live very long 48-72 hours.

This is his girlfriend by the way.

holy shit :eek: , i just drove highway 1 west out of calgary just into springbank and the roads are very dangerous. on a bike is just plain suicide!

[ercchry]

:nut:

That is insane! Hell I'm sure if he asked for a ride on here someone would have given him one

[7thgenvic]

might want to check down the street cause hes probably laying there if he rode a bike , jesus christ is he retarded?

[2BLUE]

When you care for someone you would do anything for them.

I'm going to bed i have to work in the morning.

[90trex]

yea ok .. thats was the most retarded post i have ever read . why doesnt he ride a sea doo on the highway to golden its pretty much the same deal. best of luck with your uncle but dont be rediculous

[Team_Mclaren]

Sure if you want to be along side him, that way i think you can even get a free ride there.

On a more serious note, that's possibly the dumbest decision you can make man, ask for a ride, even from beyond wouldve been a better option.

[heinz256]

damn....good luck to you, hope you make it there safe and sound.

[7thgenvic]

can't wait to see the headlines about a guy who fucking drove his bike out in this weather. fucking brutal

[BlackFyre]

Greyhound would have definitely been a better solution, It's unfortunate he wouldn't heed anyones advice, hopefully everything turns out ok though.

[G-ZUS]

I would have given him a ride

[2BLUE]

Hello guys!

Just to let you know he rolled into golden 10mins ago. The trip took roughly 5hours!

And the bike is still in one piece

I'm glad he's ok and hope for his uncle the same

[ekguy]

it was obviously ment to be for him to see his uncle one last time cuz i didn't like the roads even in my civic tonight. They were bad and thats not exaggerating I was hydropanning all over the place. I can't believe your bf risked it. When he gets back count your lucky stars he made it. Especially in the very late evening.
