No worries Dave! The acceleration of these sleds is very addictive, I might try it again next season, but this time it will be on an old vintage one lunger!! top speed 15 mph. my Wreck was 17 years ago, on a "yellow" 670 MXZ.

SB I know what you mean about the 12 years! glad to hear you are ok. those trees can be a real Bi*ch.

It's been so cold up here, my shop's sewer pipe froze at the street. They came out again this Past Friday to see if they could blast it open again, since the temps have risin somewhat. The hot water they where blasting in started to freeze again.

No toilet at the shop suks ! It's been almost a month. Thank god no women work here.

Nope. It's in a busier town and Downtown right at a very busy traffic light. At home we (guys) pee outside instead of going in to pee. All dirt roads, trees, water, animals....lol. My wife is from the city, it still kills her seeing this. LOL.

My kid is in NYC for college.

When he left for there I told him good luck taking a piss and i laughed. When we talked abput a week later during the convo he said 'Now I know what you meant !"
This is a kid who grew up sometimes not being able to make it to the bus stop because of bears. Yup. true. Atleast half a dozen times he was denied by a bear.

ha !

In case someone doesn't believe me, here's one at my shed that let me walk up to him without him taking off. It's a pretty big ugly black bear. Schithead was eating + shucking my acorns. LOL.
And yeh, if you have the sound on, that's Loon's in the backround.
