Right after I saw that on the news, I went to the shed to see if the snowtires had enough tread for the winter. They do and it won't be long before they have to be put on.

It can't snow here yet, I haven't had my last ride of the season.
I try to put the bike away the same week that I get the snowblower out.

Mark, you keep up with those kind of posts all winter you will be in the same category as CJ and BD.



By the way, isn't 66 about as warm as it ever got in the PNW??? You are starting to act like BD on temperatures.

We get these same kinds of taunting posts every year from California and Az. I say that at the next National Rally we make BD and CJ sleep outside under the sprinklers. They can keep each other warm. HA justice is sweet ;),:)

You all that live in the snow belt know that Scott, Dave, Mark and others don't give a sh*t if your up to your elbows and assholes in snow. We're too busy riding.

Hey man, I live in the snow belt. The difference with me is I DON'T BITCH ABOUT THE SNOW!!!
Props to Mark. He didn't like the weather where he was, so he moved.
Hey Joel, do you ever think about moving to where it's warmer? I'll bet CJ or BD would let you crash at their place until you found a pad of your own!

What's the matter, Bud...did they build a fence around Idaho so you can't get out?
