  1. LOL...yes, so true! You cannot not underestimate the things stupid people can and will do!
  2. Was there not a picture of him re-posted recently somewhere.....
  3. I agree with this....ice damns will still form depending on the season pattern and the slope of the roof, regardless of the air flow in the attic. But some ice dams you see, are clearly caused from some serious ventilation issues and should be fixed.
  4. Going full retire vs. the part time retire/part time tit sucker job?!?!?
  5. Maybe they will be so wrong we will get all snow on Monday....there is always a first!
  6. Exactly....back to the fun 2-smoke! When I bought my current sled, I toy'd with the idea of a 4-stroke, just could not get over the weight sitting out front....having to move it around, pull it out of the rubarb when I pull a RR and cornering. The 800 pulls like a freight train to 80/90ish.....and so smooth!
  7. Same chassis, different motor.....so what is better, or worse?
  8. Yep, just looked myself.....5 more days before the 26th, so we should be closer to 15 by the time the 26th gets here At least the drive back from Sauble beach on boxing day should be nice....
  9. Particularly liked the beer part ! Black guy was paid to be there......
  10. Where's the Yamaha? How'd you find the suspension on the cat? Looks like a good time and trails
  11. The one thing they usually underestimate is how warm it gets and how much rain will fall....Those numbers will likely increase....
  12. Looking at the forecast each day, I cannot help to feel this sinking all too familiar feeling, this time of the year..
  13. No worries, 02 is a keyboard rider.....there will be no trail riding anytime soon, so forecast is irrelevant And not to kid myself either, my trail riding has decreased as of late as well.....
  14. Oh snap....Sled tracks on soldiers bay and Holland river! Lots of slush tracks too.... Crazy buggers.
  15. I know it takes a special kind of person....but who rides along a trail on a sled, to stop or take the time to start bitching at someone walking their dog, taking a walk, just enjoying the outdoors, etc.... I know the flip side is there could be a disgruntled person using the trail that does not want the sled traffic, so they pick an argument with you...... I thought this was an interesting video from this morning that I saw on facecreep:
  16. Watch some of the news, yes, people do care, usually it is the neighbour though.....just the other day a skating rink was requested to be removed by a neighbour, tree fort not long ago, clothes lines, trailers in driveways, etc..... Society has become a very messed up place, people are in their little world, me, me, me.....
  17. It has been a slow creep with the temps, each day the forecast gets a little warmer around Christmas.....some areas will not handle it so well, while a little North, it will likley be a good thing, settle things down, put some substance in the snow on the ground and help with the frost
  18. Just because the person who might be pulling this a "land owner", does not mean they are not messed up with bad intentions - people do stupid, vindictive stuff everyday, some do it because they do not know any better and others do it on purpose. Owner might have felt pressured to sign off on the agreement, so did so, than had second thoughts after there were sleds now on their land and decided to pull the plug, after the club did x, y, z to meet their original request in order for a trail to pass ......which is their right to pull the plug, regardless of what really happened, and it is also their right to play these games, if they so wish, they have something we need & want! Not saying this happened, but I am sure it could not be out of the question and likely has happened somewhere. As a volunteer doing the task of negotiating with land owners to get permissions, and this happens, that must be a tough pill to swallow. Regardless, it is an interesting notion and I guess could of went either way......no one knows except the owner and the person or persons who might have been disrespectful.
  19. I suppose not out of the question, but just more proof of how society is widely screwed up.
  20. As much as kijiji is a pain, it usually serves the purposes and if priced correctly, whatever you are selling, will sell fairly easy.
  21. Classic example of such a large percentage of the population these days....such a disappointment. Same pricks will likely still try to ride the trail now that it is closed.....

    Oh boy, you are ambitious...!
  23. Haha...so true. One time a little speed does not hurt.
