Now this is really stupid. The Co is open accept for the lazy clubs. How can we fracture our system this bad. Might as well send me a ticket. We’re riding.
LAZY CLUBS??? How stupid are you?? We've had 4 crews cutting and brushing since the storm ended....lots of trees down, and some serious wet areas (from the rain before the snow).....it's ignorance like this that absolutely pisses me off....GET YOUR ASS OUT THERE and start brushing...CLOWN!!!
Perfect attakman! As they say, 'There is no fix for stupid!'

There is nothing strange about it....we had Wednesday night , and Thursday to brush 275 miles of trails...some trails looked like a tornado went through, so many downed trees that it was impassible....hours and hours of work, an impossible task to get done in a day and a half (they gave us until 8AM today to clear it )....even the cruisers are out this morning trying to clear a bad area on the bearskin....in fact all of the clubs in oneida county have some tree damaged areas and water holes they are trying to correct as we speak(some worse than others)....we should just be thankful we are able to get another weekend of riding in.

Seems like with the wind and then heavy snow took its toll on the trees. Thank you to all the club members who have been out there busting there rear ends to get trails open for a couple of more days. Wish I was up there to pitch ini but unfortunately have to do that work thing so I can afford to come up there and relax.

While I didn't care for his "lazy clubs" reference, it shouldn't give you comfort in personal attacks like stupid, ignorant and clown. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Ranting does no good for your club or the sport overall. If the work is getting to you, take a break. Volunteers should only contribute up to their comfort level or they risk burnout.
Yes....calling the clubs "LAZY" pissed me off......it's not the work that's getting to me...it's the people...snowmobilers are not what they used to be....I have seen more entitled snobs, and arrogant jerks this year than ever before...it's sickening...believe me...I've asked myself repeatedly...Do I need to dedicate my free time to make trails rideable and safe for folks like that? I will be thinking about it this entire offseason, and will make a decision before next fall. I can tell you..I'm not the only one who feels this way....Our sport is being over run by selfish jerks..and it's sad to watch

It's not only in snowmobiling, it's everywhere!

Bingo…..
All of us old guys grew up doing this as a family sport....and we had the "family" feeling out riding with friends and club members...that has disappeared....it's become a rich person, spoiled kid sport (there are 16 year old kids riding newer, nicer sleds than I have)...unfortunately snowmobiling isn't affordable for the average family anymore...it's too expensive, and it's why Yamaha is gone, and Cat is teetering on the edge...it's a dying sport.....well...enough of the doom and gloom...I'm going to head out and ride the next three days and enjoy what's left of our season...it's most likely done come Monday....so get out and ride if you can
