Sled preparation is happening, but hard to verify everything with little to no shake-down miles. Very slow start to snow season, but hoping Jan and Feb will bring changes. Looking forward to riding again.

Was fired up a month ago and got things ready to go for this winter. 2" of rain last week, which should have been snow, pretty much put a damper on the mood. The twp bladed our road Wed. Gravel, not snow. Unheard of until now. Until this cycle breaks it's gonna be ugly. I haven't even bothered to make a hotel reservation yet. This must be my payback for buying an enclosed trailer this fall. :(
