I guess if that was the one we won't be making it there as I don't think the roads around here will be clean enough or be able to get out to the streets unless the snow goes very quickly. Fingers crossed.

AFternoon everyone
Must be pretty Awesome to see your son Grant!! Can't wait till mine gets of better age and gets into a sport of some kind. Hasn't found he's niche yet but I can tell ya buying him his 1st hockey stick the other day, kids got a mean shot and bang on to boot. Kinda praying for the MX route but time will tell

Great ride yesterday!! Not a track on the freshly groomed route we chose!! Buddy had a pretty bad crash. He's ok, thankfully, machine we had to limp home. Hard to see my old Phazer twisted up but it's replacable. Good ole Yamaha, takes a lickin and keeps on tickin!!

Enjoy the day everyone!! Maximize its potential.....if you have energy after shoveling lol

It`s sunny but also very, very cold....-24°C feeling like -31°C!
It would be great if you can make the Draggins Car Show Sherm, hopefully by Easter the roads should be fine John.
Not a lot of snow to shovel here after a run thru with my Bobcat Curtis.

I`ve never been to Ont yet John so I wouldn`t mind but it is a little far for me to come with the Bobcat.
You certainly wouldn`t want what we have, -23°C and feels like -30°C. It is supposed to warm up just a little then slide back down so no relief in sight just yet.

Morning everyone, its been a while since I've posted. Just got off night shift Wednesday morning and now I'm back on day shift already, only reason why I'm up this early lol.


Grant, congrats to your son winning all those hockey games. Who knows, maybe one day he'll make it to the NHL.


Gerry, glad to see you're back!


That looks like a LOT of snow Morris! Kind of reminds me of what Gillam normally looks like, we still don't have very much snow


Glad your friend is alright Curtis, good thing it was just a Yamaha


John, we normally have more snow then that in May lol.

Morning fellas. Damned cold out there this am. I don't like it Our diesel jobsite heater burnt $800 in fuel in a week. Going to be ugly for the insurance company if this cold keeps up.

Grant, I think I remember you mentioning your brother's condition before. Many respects to you for taking care of him!!

Mo, you've never been to Ontario? You're missing out. I suggest you jump in your most comfortable ride this summer and take a cruise. Northern Ontario is beautiful. Its a big province to cross, but very diverse. I always say that you see all of Canada when you drive across Ontario.

We're just getting enough snow to sled Randy, but I don't feel like it...

John, we usually get a real nice spell where we see the grass, everyone is happy and excited for spring/summer, then we get 10" of wet sloppy snow and everyone is flooded and pissed again Then July/August comes along with our 2 months of summer...

Have a great Thursday everyone!!! Tomorrow is the end of the work week!!! Yippee!!

We generally have to wait a couple weeks into June before we can safely say our crappy weather is over and done with, we did have a freak dump of snow once in July though many years ago, came and went the same day
