I get nervous this time of the year up here.

Yeah it gets put away for the winter. I wouldn't be able to deal with the destruction that salt would do to the car in the winter, not to mention its probably not too safe to drive in shitty conditions. As the roads dried up tonight I noticed there wasn't any salt on the roads at all. Which is strange because usually with a snowfall like this they dump salt on the road until it turns completely white. So I need to get it put away ASAP before this **** happens again. I don't think anyone was prepared for this snow, but there were plows out last night.

It's supposed to be substantially above freezing for the next few days. I'm planning on putting mine away on Saturday...wash car / photoshoot with model / change wheels / change oil / fuel stabilizer / drive to storage

you have a sled with 300hp

? Don't get me wrong, I love snow but not this soon because all it does is make a mess when it melts. I have Ski-Doo 800 thats probably somewhere around 130 hp and I love rippin around on the Adirondack trail system.

That looks intense! Now you have me excited for winter. I've always wanted to go out west and ride, although I wouldn't get too far with a short track. The only vid I have of my sled is a crappy cell phone vid of me shooting across water.

I saved up some money to buy a new one this year but I just lost my job so I'm gonna have to hold out until I find something else. Sorry for getting so far off topic, haha.

I feel your pain. We got snow here in WI earlier this week and I was sooo pissed. It's all gone and about 40-50 right now. Once it stays around 30 during the day I'm putting my car in storage. Wisconsin winters FTL.
