Indeed if we get what they say should be a good time for us here in NH to go out and find NEMO ( think that is what they named the storm) Glad I got my sleds ready when I did and all the reg. insurance etc. Know a few who are scrambling around bad right now :-) ENJOY the snow Ride safe

It's so windy though, the drifts are getting big. But it's so uneven. No snow (depth) in one spot, and over 2 feet already in another.

Went back out riding the 2 feet of pow on all the roads with some friends, Me on my Edge 600 my buddie on his 96 indy 500 and my other buddie on a viper 700 i believe it was. ended up doing like 50ish miles just bombing around town.

packed it in early though as my buddies 500 was having some serious power loss issues.

27" here at home! Too deep to ride right now, it should settle a little overnight and tomorrow, then riding should be SWEET!

I took the 650 around the block today and got stuck in a 4' drift. It was short lived but a good time none the less.

I'm getting too old to dig out...
