Anything goes nowadays.

Probably not enough traffic to stay open longer hours. Some of thier best customers aren't allowed to go.

Me and my crew would eat and drink beer there every day after riding. Now we don't go.

I still buy beer at the store there, and it always looks slow, and just a few year ago there was a wait to get in if you got there at supper time....

 

[Cableguy]

ya forgot us jews arnt welcome there either I spose

 

[Slamnek]

Its come full circle now as people want to ride with the " older" guys now, is Lilduke and Maxwell considered old now? Lol My group I am not sure if they WANT to ride with me or they feel Obligated. Long as they have fun with my antics and I with theirs it's all good. Show them how it is done Sno pro!!!

I love riding with you!! I always know at least one person is looking out for me unlike the rest of the crew. Hahaha.

There's only a 5-10 bed hospital in Revy, I think it will be full of covid paitents all season so be carefull people.

Should ride with an EMT

Thanks folks!
There are spots to post for Covid (and related) in a seperate thread........

Well its here.
Looks like its gonna be a sweet day for an early day of riding as the skies are basically clear.
Winter storm warning issued. Ride early...!!
Still cool this am at -14 on thermometer at house. At least no wind like yesterday.
Stay away from wind blown areas (ridges and upper peaks) and the snow is deep.
The low cloud and socked in conditions keep the average rider away from the alpine yesterday, so it will be fun up there with the visibility.

We had a crew of 4 yesterday and smashed fresh all day.
4 hours and the sleds were beeping asking for a drink. They were tired and thirsty also. LOL.

Refreshments at days end were well deserved.
Early to bed as all were exhausted........

Safe ride, deep pow for all.

You only have to do your Leg STRETCHING exercises and in a few weeks you will be just fine

 

[lilduke]

Looks like there's going to be some snow..

 

[kimrick]

Looking out bedroom window.

Leaving in 20 minutes.......

See Boulder mountain in the background? LOL
Usually see it.

Go figure roads closed.

No outsiders coming in to get the goods fow awhile....
Avy is HIGH, High, Considerable......

Risk assesment before hitting those hills and have the gear.

Ride safe all.

 

[lilduke]

Roads will be open later today
