Cabin fever and crappy NE weather can make you do the impossible. Now I know why I left the NE over 30 years ago. 37 for the high and snow upstate NY. Wear finger condoms just to be on the safe side.

I love winter up here.

Our winters produce billion dollar tourist industries, so some people must like it.

These photos where taken (not from me) about 100 yds from my shop.

Looks like no one's enjoying the frozen lake huh. Hmmmm

230 teams competed this year on 20 rinks. That's a lot of beer ! LOL.

Wow that was taken this past weekend - looks warm - I was really just messing with you completely. I hear you - use to flat track on the ice in my motorcycle days in the NE. Heck been to your neck of the woods on my street bike back in the 70's & early 80's more times than I can count in the summer. Will say I do not miss Christmas from Dec to the end of April. But NE summers I do miss badly.

Is that Lake Winny ? My brother goes to the big bike event every year.

Yup. I'm right there . He'll drive right by my place.

I'm 3/4 mile from Laconia (Meredith) Harley Davidson.

Alright, done finger fkin oil filters. All threads pretty damn good. Just a few with some small cuts in the thread that catches your skin but none that cut thru, nor have any metal hangers (shrapnel)

Your mileage may vary.

I took some pics of the sliver, it is towards the top of the thread but I don't the the start . I also cut the filter apart and saw nothing in the pleats. Looked at the oil some in the sun and no glitter. I left a message for the Bosch automotive technical support today and haven't heard back.
