Unhappy Spent lots of $ this year!

Bought a BN f7 snopro. I can ride right from my house usually. But this year I figured Id get a BN enclosed trailer. My thought was, "Ha, if theres no snow near me, Ill just trailer em up north! " Well this has been pretty funny cause theres no snow in NY state thats ridable. Cant even trailer em' So the jokes on me and anyone else who had that thought process. Ive just been trying real hard to laugh about it but its really hard...To laugh...Ha...

I hear ya Hotrod! I as well spent thousands this year and haven't clicked a mile in New York. Got a new 05' MXZ-X 600 REV, new trailer from Triton, bought new jacket, gloves and helmet. The temps in NY are above 40 more than they are below 30. It was 57 degrees on New Years Eve......That was just great. It rains more than it snows. The weathermen here think the fact we have had NOW WINTER is funny. Next week is supposed to be 50 and rain. Canceled 2 trips to the Andirondacks because they have no snow either. On a brighter note though, I have waxed my new sled 3 times, played with the suspension for hours and pretended to ride a bunch of times. Now we are in the middle of January....and what.......Just gotta vent.

Oh Yeah! Definetely! I don't know, it's just so darn frustrating. We get this bad rap in Buffalo about "all this snow" and we have had absolutely nothing. If we do get a few inches, the rain washes it all away!

I also dress up in full snowmobile garb. Even put on the helmet. Sometimes if my buddy and I get really anxious, we will go out and tear up his lawn. It's a shame I cannot fit myself into the freezer to make sure my heated shield is working. How bout' sending some snow over from the Dakota's??

Whoa.....oh, yeah....it's snowin today. Not enough to ride on, so I thought I'd go down in the garage and make a few more adjustments on the coupler blocks HA! Then I treated myself bigtime, and actually started my sled. Wow! She fired up on the 2nd pull. Almost thought about putting my gear on and pretending again, but had to unload the dishwasher and throw in another load of laundry. Then had to decide what to have for lunch. Guys, I am just being sarcastic. This time last year we were riding every weekend. I am really jealous (and happy) for all the other guys that can ride. Like Hotrod said, next week we can expect rain and temps in the upper 40's....Sweet..............
