Default A sad day

Its getting really cold here and snow is in the forcast for next week.....

So I changed the oil, lubed the chain, filled the tank with stabil gas, got rid of the fuel in the system, pulled the battery....and put the ol' F4 away for the winter with a cover on it in the corner of the garage.

It hurts every time.

It's been in the 40's here but I refuse to put her away yet. If I can ride a snowmobile I can ride my bike until the snow sets in for good.

I dont have a snowmobile, and am not a huge fan of boarding....so I guess I will just contemplate spring.

Sorry Bob. Well, looking at your sig, its time to hit the range. Maybe work up some new .223 loads.

Perhaps it is time to hit the range! its actually been awhile, fantastic idea CJardine.

Are you saying there are caliber restrictions in CA, or they just wont let you have the savage 110ba? They are out of my price range anyway.

let me give another perspective.
It's getting chilly around here on saturday morning in my ultra ventilated suit
the temp is in the 60's on 7 o'clock in the morning. by 11 o'clock it's in the upper 80's and you are soaked .. and that was last week,not august

than again, skiing season around here on the one miserable ski site is a month top.

you have 4 months at least?
I have 6 years old ski boots, looking practically new

cheer up!
