Default Its not fair

A week ago at this time I was really thinking winter was over, and I was going to get some riding in. Well last friday we got about 5-6 inches of snow. I could have dealt with that, but now tueday we got another 3, and yesterday, today, and tomorrow its blizzard warnings. We havent gotten this much snow put together all year! I will glady take 100+ degree days vs this crap. I got my car stuck yesterday in the parking lot because the a-hole in the loader decided not to scrape the snow the day before, so what I thought was snow packed, was snow packed on top of ice.

I just envy everyone who is smart enough to live in warm weather... if I hadnt bought a house not that long ago I would be long gone.

This groud had zero snow 7 days ago:


Right now its snowing and the wind is kicking 30-40 sustained

I know exactly what you mean... after about 3 weeks of sub-zero temps 20s and 30s get the blood pumping to dust off the ol bike- then it has to snow. 10 inches last weekend, another 10-15 this weekend with blizzard conditions...
