So this getting old sucks. Ive gone riding with some local friends a few times now. Just close to Kelowna. All of them are rookies and I forgot how hard it is to be a rookie in the mountains. Well I tried to give them pointers on how not to get stuck but you know how that goes. Ended up helping too many times and pulling and lifting the sleds and ended up tearing a muscle in my forearm. My old body is letting me down. Going to have to recover for a few weeks and try again.

Cmon snow, went and checked out the alley on Friday. Was going to try and get some 2 wheel therapy to get me by. A little too much ice in the alley but plus 9 was definitely Harley ridin weather.

My wife's cousin is 58 and his daughters are trying to get him in a nursing home. He's always been a waste of skin imo

Heard this saying in another situation but I think it really applys everywhere for us older guys....

" I'd rather be the Oldest guy in the sledding crew than the youngest in the nursing home!"
Kinda applies to younger guys too. It may not hurt much when your young but it catches up to you in reminders of aches very quickly as ages passes by. You may end up being the youngest in your nursing home pulling stupid stunts when your young, but hey we all doit.

Make sure post pics for those of us at work. More than that I guess is so we can see if there is any damn snow yet….
I will for sure, I can’t even get a straght answer on conditions. I know it’s low but I can’t wait no more.
