Tom...you should take them up on their offer to cancel and go with a Mac. Several buddies of mine have switched and I can say after using theirs that my next computer will be a MAC hands down. The iphoto program is amazing for organizing/editing creating albums. You would really like the ivideo capabilities and they don't run into all the BS with Microsofts operating systems.

Went up and checked out the snow and the progress on the new warming hut. Not much snow, but still nice to be able to walkaround in it!
I'll post pics later.

Well, It looks like I am getting my hip replaced in December. No frikken riding for me this year. I will be selling my wifes 07 Summit X and keeping my XP if anyone is looking.

Apple makes cool stuff no doubt. But I'm stuck with one if not two of these Dells. One showed up today, cool laptop! Too bad it's the one I have to try and send back.

With all this snow talk, I better start polishing the Revy mud off my sled.

One of the Mod Rod boys got a new toy in his garage. Spill the beans Brian!

Sweet ride today! Played in some snow, rode some technical trails and enjoyed the beautiful fall day we had And no Sawyer did not make it, but from what I was told this is not an uncommon thing. Can't wait for ragged to post some pics since I forgot my camera.

To all those that woosed out of the ride today..... HAHA .......You missed an excellent ride.

The hardy riders: Nitro, Dtrip, Ragged, Graveyarder, & FSJ

A few sprinkles on the way to the trailhead, found some snow on the tops of the ridges. Blasting through branches covered in snow & ice was different on a bike, but fun. I will have to admit, the quads are a bit more suitable for the snow covered trails. Bikes require careful throttle and brake control to keep from spinning the backend around, but it does make the two-track trails more challenging.

Around 11am, the clouds broke, the sun came out, and it warmed up to the perfect riding temp. The had melted off of the ridges. I filled up my memory cards on the snow pictures, Ragged has pictures after the sun came out.

I crashed on a dry, snow free road. Trails=good, roads=bad. Was about to miss a turn, so I layed her down.

The first part of the trail to have any real coverage

You can see were the snow level was

About as deep as it got

This is fun, maybe a little cold, but more throttle takes care of that

Looking back at the ridge above Elsie

Cemetary Ridge without the cornice

FSJ, Sweet pics!!

 

[DTrip]

Fun ride today!!!

Nice pics Frank, nice to meet ya Graveyarder, Ragged post the pics of the "technical" riding.

Was really nice to see the snow and "feel it up a little bit", then the sun came out and turned into a really nice day, topped off with a big burger @ the Snakepit.

so is that riding in snow kinda like riding in mud? Just upshift one and even on the throttle?

Looks like a good day! Better then picking up deck materials and moving 2 yards of dirt.

Oh well, taking Emma to some grass drags and swap meet in the morning. Should be a good time.

SNOW!!! So the parents are bringing up the final papers for the sled tomorrow/today...I'm SO JACKED!!! Boost is gonna be so fun, I think I may have to take it up and down the street a couple times just to see what it's like...Stormtrooper, are you down???

Sawyer...did you seriously ditch out again...man, I'm starting to wonder if you have a set of B@**S after all...or can I find them in the back of Jodie's pocket???

Looks like a fun ride up at Elise...I'm kinda surprise that Nitro hasn't posted a chit ton of pics yet...maybe in the morn. BTW Nitro, send me a pm of the guy that bought the REV from ya, I need to get rid of some of my parts so they're not sittin in the way.

X...the M's won tonight...but so did the Twinks...It's gonna come down to the final game, I just know it

Well goodnight everyone!!!

Well goodnight everyone!!!

I think she even took the spare set of balls he keeps in his truck. If this recent track record is any indication of this winter, it was good to ride with you last year Chris Between Nitro, Griz and myself, we'll take as many pictures as we can this year.

 

[SAWYER]

hahaha. Holman and whit. i did miss out on Elsie. But it was due to consuming large amounts of alcohol the night before.

 

[Graveyarder]

Talked to some friends in Joseph Oregon this morning and they woke up to 6" of wet heavy snow!! Man I wonder what they got in the mountains? Way jealous right now.

Oh well, taking Emma to some grass drags and swap meet in the morning. Should be a good time.

Dude Hay Days is over...you missed it. Larry even brought a signed glamour shot just for you.

 

[Skadi]

Holy crapoly!! We woke up to TOO MUCH snow to ride today!! It's warming up and we may be able to get out tomorrow but here at the HOUSE is too much and any of the trails are up higher!! Would be happy about it but I wanted to ride DIRT!!!

Hope you kids are having fun camping!
