Title: Not long now...........
Post by: Pidgey on February 19, 2008, 11:49:28 PM
I was out on my Ural Patrol Sunday when I spied my first two wheeler of the year. An older dude on a Harley of some kind. Waved to him and to some skidoo'ers tearing up a farmers field. Counting the days till I can fire up the 'ole bandit again.   :motorsmile:

I guess you guys have a little less snow there than we do. Everything here not covered in ice, is covered in marbles (tons of gravel & sand).

We'll be 4+ weeks yet...

We've had next to no snow here so far (although a little is forecast today and Friday).  But the crews must feel they have to spread all their gravel anyway.  Every time it's the slightest bit slippery there's a ton of crap thrown down.  It will be quite a while before you can ride around here with any confidence.  I hate winter!   :annoy:

The World of Wheels is on this weekend in Cowtown....so can spring really be that far away ??? :wink:
The glacier has receded from the door of my shed this last week and that's a good sign, too.
I feel your pain, Paul. You guys in the Kootenays DO get snow....in spades. My nephew and his buddies were in Fernie snowboarding about 2 weeks ago and it snowed every night they were there. They boarded in waist-deep powder every day for 6 days.
Oh well, this too will pass, as the ostrich said after he swallowed the baseball.  :lol: :lol: :lol:
