Took a little ride this morning and met up with a fellow JD (Jerry and his buds) up in Mercer for breakfast at the Great Northern which appears to be the olny place open for breakfast in Mercer right now. Left Mercer and Jerry and his crew headed back to MW as they had to pack up and leave. I...

Another 2" here overnight in MW. That give us 4" of new from this blockbuster event, will keep the trails nice until it warms up later in the week, maybe another ride Tuesday? To the north and NW of us they did get a lot more, up by Hurley over a foot. And it's 10 degrees this morning so...

I figured someone here has a link to a site that can give accurate totals so far this season. Thanks!

Alright, I'm 66 and and just treading water, no, actually losing ground like I'm sure everyone is? I'm down about 15% since Covid 3 years ago and not making up any ground. Whenever I do make a run, it just slips away again. Is there anywhere that is a safe 5% investment? The Silicon Valley Bank...

it's 36 and cloudy at 1:30pm here in MW, Just got back from the gym and trails look nice from the road, they groomed last night and not much traffic so should be awesome. Accu weather is showing 1-3" of snow into Friday, light snow on Saturday and Sunday with highs around 30, lows in the teens...

Fairly disappointed in movies on streaming apps lately. Antone have a good one that they can recommend?

First, It was 38 and sunny today and I didn't leave until 1pm which is OK as I wanted to see how the trails are holding up. After anywhere from 4-8" of snow in our area Monday I would hate to of seen the trails if we didn't receive it. No cause for alarm but that new snow pretty much compacted...
