funny is i cant wait for the snow so i can ride the sled, but my car has some falken azenis 615s that are summer tires only.

so im not sure how ill get around this winter except for the sled. I just moved 6 miles from work, so lets see if i can get away with riding sled to work....

Come on. are you kidding me?


Around here (nepa) it does not matter what snow we get. Trail stay closed 'till hunting season is over.

No just staying with the other comments...tempted to drive around the house. I have a problem with the Ski Doo that will only happen when driven slowly so really tempted to trouble shoot is more like it. Trails don't open here until December and until there is 4 inches of snow. We aren't anywhere near those conditions. Even in December if the ponds and creeks aren't frozen, the trails can't be groomed even if we had 5 feet of snow.

Still snowing. I'll have to spend all afternoon snowblowing the driveway. Some areas in the mountains picked up 44 inches!

its pretty sweet... just put a new (to me) clutch in it of a 91 indy trail, becuase mine was all wore down in all the wrong places...
its pretty quick though, it'l do 0-70 in about 6 seconds... maybe a little slower, i never really got to clock it last year... this year though... the only thing I don't like is that the rear suspension only has like 5-6 inches of travel... not so great on washboard trails like we get around here...

I just heard tell that its gonna be back down in the low 30's next week!!! woohoo! bring it on!
