yeah I know lol.....I would to but at the begining of the winter my comp took a crap and I didnt have one pretty much all winter......and ive been busy...workin 7 days a week so I didnt have time to get on the computer and talk to you guys... but ive got time in the mornings now so I can get on for a little while
....that 3 feet is pretty weak for our standards....the winter before last we had a little over 5 feet in town and some real good powder but this year was mostly a hard pack year with little to no powder but it made for some good hillclimben
and now im thinkin on buyin a new machine....the guy here at the skidoo shop has 1 summit left and im thinkin on goin ahead and buying it....I just bought that summit I have now this summer but I want to upgrade to the rev and im makin real good money
and thats pretty much all thats happend with me lately....nothin exciting lol... just workin and lookin at the sleds in the gerage wishin I could ride them
good to see the regular crew around here though

sorry for not responding sooner
anyway, sure, come on the MI ride. every year ive been on it, we've had a great time...well, minus the first year when i busted my trailing arm...and the second year too, when i blew out my sway arm bushing...but other than that its a blast
i just think i have some bad ju-ju with those guys though.
sometime around oct/nov well start planning again. you should caravan with 'magoo. ever year he has given excuses as to why he cant come

looks like we're both the bionic man...
i had my dirtbike accident a few years ago...i dislocated my right hip, broke my right femur, broke my right patella (knee cap), fractured the rim where the femur connects to the hip (right side), and also broke the radius and ulna on my left hand (open fracture - bones sticking out).
i had two plates on my left hand, 5 corrective surgeries (one of which was a stem cell, and two were bone graphs), now i only have one plate left.
between the surgieries i had pins to hold the little bones together (so 15 different pins all together). overall i had roughly 1000 stitches between the initial accident and all the surgeries.
