The temp has dropped back down below freezing and things are freezing back up. This is a big plus, so when the snow returns later this week it will add up fast. I was up along trail 5 last night and believe it or not, there is still some hard pack on it. That goes to show how much longer a packed snow surface will last compared to plain old snow in the yard.
Today's Video.............
Like I was saying all week. We will be riding by fri. May not be great. But rideable
ReplyDeleteWell guess your definition of "rideable" is scraping along wearing out carbides in 10 miles. Thats NOT rideable. Like I was saying all week, try back mid january.
DeleteSCRAPE-EM IF YA GOTTEM !!!
DeleteNo chance...you'll be riding on stones and Mudd !!! give it a few weeks..
ReplyDeleteWeather reports are looking better &better. Keep dancing people.....
ReplyDeleteI just love when you guys see rain and 50 degree temps in the forecast you say it can change. But when you see some "snow showers" you act like its a blizzard. Face reality. Trails will need ALOT of snow to get back in shape. That is a few weeks of time.
Deletewow the trail cam, not even close to being rideable.
DeleteThey will be rideable by Friday. Big snow coming
ReplyDeleteI wanna no where you get your weather info from their only calling for 3 5 at the most up that way
ReplyDeleteStop being negative
ReplyDeleteCarbides and slides are replaceable
Stop trying to get 4 years out of them
Ride when you can and stop complaining here
Otherwise you will be riding your sled via your computer!!
negative? Its called being realistic. Carbides are replaceable? Then why arent you riding now? Yeah ride when you can means when there is snow. Not 3 inches of cover.
DeleteBoy you kids are unreal.
Really
DeleteI'm probably older than you anonymous
DeleteBtw carbides are replaceable
Delete3 3/8 bolts hold them on
Lol
I doubt you are older than I am. Again why dont you ride now? Just replace the carbides. You prob ride an ancient POS thats worth $100. Typical kid.
DeleteI'm with Dave big snow coming.
ReplyDeleteLake affect snow advisory issued. Like I've been saying. I'll be riding and you will be home crying on this Blogg
ReplyDeletelake affect snow advisory issued? Let us know where you get your info from. That is simply not true. 6-14"? Please stop dreaming. Weather shows 2-4". You should check out Darrens website once in a while. He is usually correct.
DeleteDo u drive you're vehicle like that? Some of us are lucky enough that we can even afford this sport I know I have way to much money invested to ride like that. My sled is paid for i will keep it as long as I can. Just part of the sport good years bad years we were spoiled last year. Happy new year let's make it a safe and great year!
ReplyDeleteLooks like Dave might be my new weatherman.
ReplyDeleteOk Dave. Lets start dancing people. The believers will be riding & the nay sayer s will be crying. Heading up Wed night.
ReplyDelete6-14 national weather service predicts by fri am. Based on my own knowledge I'm predicting 10-12. Plenty to ride on. With this cold weather we are experiencing, and the major meltdown actually set us up with a solid rock hard foundation.. Great riding here on in. Cheers to a great winter !!
ReplyDelete10 to 12 of fluff ? won't cover a 2 inch rock I think you got rocks in your head. ha ha ha ha
Deleteso all that rain did the trails good? Please stop saying such nonsense. Unbelievable what desperate kids say. I can imagine how old you are. Do you even have a sled? I doubt it.
DeletePlay nice girls and boys!
DeleteSteve sorry
DeleteBut if he's responding to me I have 6
Been at forge since 87
Seen it all up there every year since 87 good and not so good
Been riding since 72
So stop
Again we can replace carbides and slides
10-12 of lake effect compacts to about 2-3 not really much to ride on plus no lake riding think i will wait another weekend (but I have the $ now, funny how that works)
ReplyDeletecorrect but they are also not predicting that amount of snow. That kiddo dave has been smoking in the shower way too long. I have seen 4-6" on the high end from more than one source.

ReplyDeletedosent look good.
Hear about that guy that was riding 80 miles to Barrow Alaska and went through the lake ice, and still made it on foot and was rescued. Even in the Artic circle the lakes are not safe. December 15th!!! OF has a while to wait this year, but Happy and Safe New Year to all.
