Went out for a ride tonight and put on an easy 75 miles. Was out for 5 hours including a stop at Stillwater for dinner. We saw four groomers doing the best they can with the limited snow they have to work with.
Steve, Wondering how many miles you do on adventure? I’m know running a business is demanding on your time. But If I was local I wouldn’t be able to control myself.
So far this year I'm around 250. I thought the same thing when I moved here, that I'd be out riding all the time. How does the old saying go “Make hay while the sun shines". In the north country it's "Make money when the snow flies"
Glad you were able to get some seat time in , I’m afraid it’s over after this weekend (again) without a little luck of the Irish coming our way, this season never really got going, inlets fire & lights on the 24th best view of the fireworks from the ice ( let’s not start that argument again) and even from here on out is a washout don’t forget about the Main Street St Patrick’s parade best Friday evening you can spend with your family and friends in the north country all the while supporting the local community that depend on our business. Ride Safe Keep Right (518)
Sad news guy from Rome got himself killed Saturday night riding alone ditch banging on Rt 69 clipped a concrete marker spun into a pole. wasn't found until the next day , If your going to ride alone let someone know, you never know he may have made if he was found earlier. Safety is your responsibility sorry for the loss.
came up saturday night around 9 headed over to daikers for a drink and was shoulder to shoulder packed. We rode sunday and Monday and had a great time, trails were definitely pretty descent considering the lack of snow. Steve question for you. Monday night we were trying to find a restaurant that was open, from the steak house all the way up to town besides slickers and harper’s everything was closed. One would think on a Holiday week everything’s would be open, just a little surprised and we ended up at harper’s. I’m not giving up on the season yet, i think we have at least 2 more trips in us.

Not sure you could blame uncle Joe he doesn’t know what day it is but the establishment is to blame for this for sure ,plus plus us as parents we did a bit too much coddling now all the kids what to be is influencers
You nailed it !! Parents are definately to blame ..Look in the mirror yes you .. coddling ugh these kids can’t even ride the bus anymore mommy and daddy drive them to school let them sit in the car until the last minute then they walk as slow as possible into school ! The future doesn’t look good with these kids K-12
Why kids don’t want to work is because they never had too (not all we see the ones who are out there working) but … but you have a lot still at home with mommy and daddy. You can blame the economy but we are are suffering because of it ( that’s on Joe) but you still have to get out there and work and mom and dad can’t allow the “ I have triggers “ give another participation trophy
Anyone else find it hard to take the misguided and misinformed opinions of someone as even halfway seriously when they can't even type or spell properly? Btw The economy is actually in the best shape it's been in a long time believe it or not. And that's not my opinion at all, there are straight numbers for these things. Actual statistical facts. Not something that some self-serving agenda pushing media type spoon fed anyone to say or something someone right off a bathroom wall. And I say this not being a Biden fan at all.
You would have a point except that I am a working person, and I don't watch much tv and especially not the corrupt 'news' outlets at all. We can agree to disagree. Deal in facts not feelings kiddo. It's not hard. You'll be ok.
Ok. Well I sure hope you get to ride once or twice more before the gates close and we get to keep having these updates. Can't appreciate Steve enough for his time and efforts.

ReplyDeleteWow! I agree one should never ride alone. You never know what could happen. Prayers to his family.
ReplyDeleteThat’s awesome that you got some seat time in Steve. You deserve it for all you do for us.

Like most of us, we can't find help. It's really a problem in the summer also.
DeleteThat is just sad but true thank the Covid bs for changing the world and uncle joe b

ReplyDeleteThe economy sucks! And that’s a actual sat
DeleteThere you have it folks. Proof that brain washing is real!! Turn off your TV stupid!!! Try asking the working person how the economy is!!
DeleteYou’ve got some grammatical errors going on there yourself, it’s a blog not a term paper, BTW Grammatical errors don’t include spelling.
DeleteJust saying

ReplyDeleteYou must be part of the 16% doing better, and that's the facts from a Monmouth poll Feb 2024 Kiddo
DeleteWrong again kiddo. I’m self-employed, living in the real world! tell me what color is the sky in your world.
DeleteI'm not the one saying its golden, I say its gray like the economy , kiddo
