    Ill probably get another eventually but for the now the money will go to my taco fund :D. And the FZ6 is the more upright bike. The R6-S is the same as the earlier 04-05 R6, when they came out with the new body style in 06 they continued producing the older style at a reduced price due to it not having the updated styling and inverted forks.

    HAAHA. Well, im going to be honest with you. If your used to Ice, your not going to know WHAT to do when you ride real mountains with real snow. '-)

    Arctic Valley i THINK shut down for like 1 season. HARD times. But they still only operate on weekends. Which is good and bad. If you get a storm on Wednesday, you have to wait 2 days (unless you want to just hike). Though im pretty sure they will give you hell if you ride on the actual ski area when its closed.

    Flat Top is a fun one too. There's a few peaks to choose from. Seriously, You are going to love it up here. The Chugach is the best, bar none.
