Hi there, new to me '13 LC as of only a month ago. I live on the mean streets of Norkirk (cough), Kirkland outside Seattle.
It snows so seldom here in greater Seattle, but for the first time I can plow up to Snoqualmie Pass and beyond certain times of the year and have a good chance of making the R/T okay. Last Xmas we had to use the GF's Durango to get to Leavenworth, now it's my turn to at least have the ability to navigate weather and other obstacles.
Fun thing will be: if I attend a group adventure via this forum, will I want to take my suburbanite, luxo-barge pretty waxed black LC out into the bushes? I've rolled on plenty out here via the trails (woods bikes) and fire roads (Adventure bikes), but not so much 4x4 or even AWD. I've ridden BMW GS 1200's in southern Africa several times, thousands of miles, so the concept is familiar at-least. Thanks....
