Yeha he gets a little amped this time of year...we should call his wife and have her slip him a bottle of red bull.....the flight would get there 4X as fast just due to his running up and down teh aisle!!!!!!!!

Kurt, looks like more snow today and tonight...get to Bozeman tonight, sledding in Lionshead tomorrow...then Cabin next day...

has anyone heard officially about Lionshead? is it shut down? or can we still ride it? if not what parts can we?

 

[Goldenwest]

MTdream,
Where are you from? If you have time stop by the motel in the evening as there is always someone in the shop out back. And about the Lionshead's "closure" the forest service don't even know whats closed and whats not. I am riding EVERYTHING I rode last year and if they can catch me to ticket me I will see them in court....................

steve,
have a safe trip.. ill call you when i get in town.. save some powder and cold miller lites for me..

 

[bluebear]

Put 15-20 miles on today running back and forth tuning at the old airport, sled is now running pretty good. The group that went riding said the snow was good, snowing a bit so visibility wasn't 100% and lots of snow in the trees still so if it gets windy say goodbye to seeing anything for a little while.

Keep an eye out for me, hard to miss my sled.

-Gearhead, sounds like we're gonna hit the road Sunday or Monday, not sure which or even what days those are.

Chris.
