i came back from girdwood last night (going to soldotna) and there was a dusting of snow in sterling. snow has moved down around 1000 ft maybe a little lower even around the hidden lake area. turnagain pass had snow about halfway down the mountains. same with alyeska area. palmer creek road in hope junction has enough snow to mess around on the trail. (about a foot) it seems like the snow is coming early this year. anyone know about what time you can usually ride in hatcher pass?

Usually we can manage a "tuner ride" on the back side around Holloween, (crossing my fingers while typing this).....im still dancing while typing this too by the way!!!:D:D:D

485-2=483
483-10=473
473-8=465
465-2=463
463-6=457

I cant wait to see how much fun that M7 is going to be to ride without gas, oil and coolent in it!! Should be a blast.

I'm sure my D8 is under 400 pounds without the motor in it. That make any since to you? Lets see it on a scale.
