I may be up for that too Dave. Depends on what I get done in the house next week.

Not sure the snow is going to reach that far north, last model I saw put the cut off for 6+ just north of 70. I don't think 3-4" is going to be enough on those trails up there.
Could always ride around here too, there are a lot of trails and 2 within 1 mile of my place.

Good morning Scott and the rest of MN!!

Have fun cycling today Scott cause there is no way you would be doing that here in the middle of a blizzard that is now suppose to dump around 15" here but no snow as of now!

It's starting to snow here now. I hope it's just enough to cover my skating rink we call a driveway. I'm further North than the 15" or so expected....whew.

Good morning guys.

It just started here, havi.

I'm not really looking forward to more snow. No sled for me. :-(

Almost forgot:

I just bought some shocks for my truck. I haven't changed a shock in decades. Is the typical recommendation to put in all new hardware?

Morning guys! We got two inches of BIG snowflakes last night and nothing has started as of yet this morning. Good luck to all those "southerners" who will be shoveling soon!

Good morning guys.

Not a flake here yet. The guessers are still calling for 12-20 here. We'll see...........

Not sure that you need to replace the hardware Eric. If the bolts are in good shape I typically re use them.

Morning Jake.

Looks like you guys are quite a bit cooler than down here too.

No shoveling here, my shovel is attached to the front of a truck.
