stupid question, but i must ask

Whos ready for all this warm weather to stop and have it start snowing again? As much fun as i have had with riding the bike and driving my cars, i am ready for winter time. I went to get some stuff out of the storage unit the other day and i was looking at my sled in the back and i just can not wait. i looks so pitiful juast sitting there with the back in the air. 2 pulls and it fired up and ran good.

Well I'm not ready for it to end, I'm not finished fixing them! But it would be nice to ride.

Closer and closer everyday, but i'm not finished my work on the sled either. So winter can hold off just a little longer! Besides, i like the summer. Love the sun, workin outside, playing at the cottage...

I could do without fall (raking leaves from one big-a$$ tree) an spring ( just plain messy. I'm pretty sure i could do with only two seasons!

i have to agree with you on that one. I must say, the only good thing about no snow is I save alot of money in gas being able to ride my old beater motorcycle around instead of my truck, But i am ready to spend the gas money to go out and play all day with the sled. All i have left to do is put my studs in and i will be all set to go.

you know, thats about were i am. I love riding my motrcycle, and i love working on my car, but yet, my girlfriend has never been snowmobiling before, and its just a whole diffrent kind of thrill. Dirt bikes are fun, diffrent vehicles are fun, but you can go almost anywere and do anything with a sled. I just cant wait.

I'm not quite ready yet. I finally got my GSXR fixed and have been riding the heck out of it. Plus I have a LOT of car shows left to go to.

I need about 1 more month and I'll be ready for the snow. I need to finish Pam's sled than find out why mine doesn't have spark fix that and off to the races we go. Need to find another 80 Panther for a parts sled. Had a lead on one but they never got back to me (its sitting in a field on logs??? After having one for Pam's man i need one for myself and the Panther.

have you tried craigslist classifieds: jobs, housing, personals, for sale, services, community, events, forums ? If not, give it a shot. Also, I was talking to my new girlfriend telling her how "I cant wait to be able to go snowmobiling again" and she really lifted my spirits when she said, "I've never been on a snowmobile before" So i guess i will have another rider this year

Man you guys are on here year round. I've been away for a couple of months but still thinking about sledding. Too darn busy with home reno's and yard work. Haven't been on a wakeboard yet this year......Golfing only twice....Only been quadding twice, once was "B!t@h Ride (Double). Going out for a rip this evening though with a group in the 90 degree heat. Enough Snivvling, but thanks for listening. We'll be hitting the mountain lakes for a dip I'm sure.
May be looking at a 2007 Phazer to replace my 99 MM 700??????
Anyone out there have feedback on these. (Prefer personal experience not opinions) Quite a few mountaineers around here have em and all is positive so far. Not high horsepower but I'm gettin too old to go fast.
Cheers Y'all
