All I have to say is.......

"safe riders. YOU MAKE IT SAFE !"

Im headded out to ASPEN, CO in February and am planning on doing some riding. I don't own any snowmoboobooz, but my GF and I did the NYS safety course back in October. The woman who was instructing it out in Berne was rather special in her teaching method. The class room was in a Rod n Gun club, and was filled with kids and adults from ages 10 to 50+ with an average reading ability of a moron. We all took turns reading paragraphs around the room. It was pure torture for 6 hours. The demo ski was easily a relic from 1970 something.

Thats some funny shiat right there, reminds me of one of my favorite t-shirts that says "Arkansas...Literacy ain't everything" Just waiting for the day I actually run in to someone from Arkansas while I am wearing it!!!

hahah, Dave.

js580, yeah The Hill is a real good time if you can be there when it's not crowded. ALOT of idiots from out of state come to NY to ride there. I would never the Tug on the weekends....can be deadly.
