It was Far from Fun but it was not going to get any better. Were not in our 20's anymore so with Jobs. Wives. Kids and other things We go when we can and Ill Admit winters are not what they were 10 Years ago and My Interest's Are Not Either. Ive had 14 New Sleds in the Past 15 Seasons. This Season I will not Be trading up or Trading Out But Winters have turned into a Ride it one day and dont plan on the next...

Snowmobiles do not come with a snow guarantee (i'm assuming some of you did not read your required manuals). And if you have a trailer and you REALLY enjoy riding, you will drive anywhere to get it. Many years ago i met 4 guys that drove from WI to ride with us, those are die hards, not the guys who complain about the bumps on trail 5 when their heading to the BAR. <br /><br />If the conditions were EPIC every year then you would take for granted the days of great snow, flat trails, ideal temps and those rare occasions you hit south shore road before the plows destroy it (sorry about the road comment Steve)<br /><br />When it sucks, it sucks but when its great you have to take advantage. I buy my sleds knowing that I may not ride them some years, but I have them and not many people do, so Boo-hoo go cry into your towels, call your mom, sell your sleds, complain complain complain and us Die Hards will keep praying for snow, waxing our sleds when it sucks, and beating them senseless when its great. <br /><br />Looking forward to next weekend, come hell or high water we are going to enjoy a weekend away from work, chores and reality and maybe just maybe it might snow while were there.

As it is most months in a tourist town. April is the only month I can think of that we look for it and that is for rafting on the Moose River. During other seasons, people can find other things to do. But in the winter people are in the area for one reason and one reason only, to ride sleds.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05964099533730559589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3806599526531129331.post-39914576833491307512014-01-12T10:22:51.811-05:002014-01-12T10:22:51.811-05:00You guys are queens of the soft.
