    I agree, a peaked roof is definitely better than the old thatch of long ago.

    I wish I had heated grips! I just wear some beefy winter gloves I get from work. Hands still frozen after an hour of plowing.

    My pretty decent (I thought) gloves leave my fingers getting real cold. I think I need to find some good mittens with extra insulation for my thumb. Then again, it was -2 when I went outside.

    Gloves are terrible for super cold weather. If you don't need the use of specific fingers mittens will always be so much warmer. They also make hybrids that have a separate index finger from the rest of the fingers.

    Yeah, I dont have any mittens yet which would be perfect for this. Its just the thumb gets cold hanging out on the throttle. Might go with mittens and fab up a little bash guard.

    Yea I've got some good mittens for snowboarding. Cotton glove liners work pretty well with the work gloves too.

    My cousin was here the other weekend and wanted to plow... but there was no snow. So I made him a video.

    This was cruising down the driveway with the plow all the way up. I just wanted to see how deep it was. :burnrubber:

    I may go out later and push some snow around to get a start for a tubing course. Frowns all around.

    I'm just hoping to get a base going that wont melt by the next big storm. Still not enough clearance for any tubing without hitting rocks and such, but when that time comes, I'll have a chili cookoff and fun in the snow day. Just waiting on the snow. :pray:

    I've been making chili lately with 1554 beer or ten fiddy as the only liquid added..killer.
    Maybe just build some ramps to avoid the rocks? Air born is noticeably less drag

    MC to the extreme.

    Honestly though...had to go try the tires out. We got between 4-6" of accumulation here.
    The STTPro's did great!

    Even though there's a bit of snow, i doubt you'd get far before tearing the tube. Need another two of these storms.
