Dreaming

Post by buckfever5 »

Is anyone else dreaming about snow? I think I'm losing my mind. I've had dreams that it snowed the last 4 nights in a row. Damn all these people that are thrilled about 50's and sunshine!

Not sure where you're headed, but the only place that has snow that I know of at this point in time is northern Manitoba (or Canada in general I guess). That's still at least 4 hours north of Winnipeg.

Hey normally I would be Bit%*en there is No snow , but since I have sold all of my riders off It just motivates me to continue with my project... I hope you all get at least some snow to ride before spring hits, but its not looking very good in the forecast ! For me it doesn't have to snow to ride ! Just ask anyone that been to my house. I have a "grass " well dirt oval around my yard..... :lol22: :lol22: :trackdown: :sled:

Maybe few inches Thursday into Friday. Probably mostly rain tho. Figueres the one good snow we had I had to work. :( Although on the plus side look at all the cheap sleds on :letitsnow: Craigslist!

Snow glorious snow on the weekend, about an hour north of Winnipeg. Went for a nice burn from my place to the lake and christened the ditches. On the downside I put a nice dent in the side of my left ski pulling a tiny bit of air and landing on the edge of a stump. It also popped the front shock out of the rubber boot where it connects to the front of the ski. Hopefully I can just pop the front bolt out and get it back into place.

The old JD300 was running like a champ though, burned over a half a tank of premium pre-mix and did a spark plug check...nice tan color so I am good.
