Great ride today, Tri county did an excellent job at the road crossings and the Bar-BQ and Rudy led the pack and managed to keep everyone together. Thanks Tri County.

:d Kevin

No it wasn't me, i was on my sled. I don't ride my quad in ministik (unless i'm trail clearing) as i have seen first hand the damage they do to the groomed trails. As for the avitar i put what i want in there and change it when i feel like changing it, didn't know i had to change it in the winter, must be a new rule

wasn't aware of that rule either, thought your sig line was info enough. guess people can't be bothered to look before they start there crap. unless they were trying to joke around, which they could try to do a little more clearly.

 

[canadakevin]

Well - first off - Yes I was trying to joke - thus the smile by my name at the end of it all - but obviously not to succesfully though.

I do appologize for that and definatley did not for a second think it was you or anyone else on this board.

So like I say I am sorry for not being clearer, and I promise if I make jokes in the future I will reread for clarity before I hit send.

Have a great day,

Kevin

 

[Summitric]

[Can-Do]

I guess i don't have much of a sense of humor at 6am, especially after seeing the damage done by the quads the day before. Maybe if you didn't have the in there i would have seen it as a joke. I never even noticed the smile by your name. Anyways apology excepted, no hard feelings. I'll probably see you out at ministik, maybe even for a ride again one day.
