  1. It ridiculous here in south. I sold my house in town for over double what I paid for it, in 2004. Went up another 7 percent this year. I sold it last year so had it for 15 years. Farm land same way. Some are getting 30,000 an acre on my road now. Bust sooner or later I think. Incomes aren’t increasing just low interest rates are fueling current boom.
  2. 3/4 of motel rooms will probably be rented out again too, especially with COVID. Good to see thorough. Hopefully it lasts up there, un like Kirkland lake.
  3. Ok with this COVID issue and no place to eat for day. Thinking of out fitting my enclosed trailer with a big construction heater. Uses about 5kw and can easily heat 1000 square feet, so should be no challenge to heat trailer, even if not insulated. I bring a 8kw genset with me and can run a microwave too. Setup, a few folding chairs and foldable tables and I am all set. Should be warm and comfortable enough enjoy a decent meal in parking lot after my ride. Has anyone tried this? Obviously I will run generator outside via a 240 volt 30 amp cord. Just have to drill a small hole in trailer floor to fish cord thru.
  4. I plan to stop at Tim’s and get a hot coffee instead. I just tell them to dip wings twice in forty creek sauce .
  5. Yeah Polaris you have is one good looking snowmobile too. Hopefully we get some good lasting snow this winter.
  6. Walk down road to your place with our plastic cups !
  7. Wowsey. Going to be some tensions if this gets around now, that turbo doo’s sister knows.
  8. See what happens when you leave. Go back up there so we can get 20” here to ride on please! I dare yeah.
  9. Government budget is out of control with Covid and less taxes coming in too. Nurse association Claims they are laying off nurses now too, when we need them most. Going to have to cut back on police, fire etc to balance books in future. Going to get ugly.
  10. No way he is switching, same with sled junk. Yamaha forever like nunz is to Polaris.
  11. I dunno about that. All major cities are at risk because of senior homes. It won’t take much for north bay or Timmins or Hearst for hospitals to get over whelmed and into stage 2 for 28 days. I can see it being a nightmare from a logistics stand point. If connection trails do get closed, how will they even get re opened if snows and thaws and rains etc. Not liking this idea. They aren’t closing roads down linking communities so why do trails have to be disconnected.
  12. Sounds like a lot of if’s. Looks like a big loop is out of question, since if they do close some of connection trails you need to complete your ride, it would be a dangerous one, if trails blow in and not groomed any more. I can see some riders getting caught off guard this winter. Kind of disappointing this could happen and force us to ride in circles all over province. People are going to trailer to open areas anyways, and those parking lots will be packed with truck and trailers too. I guess every day we pick a different area and circle trail to ride.
  13. As long as trails are open and grooomed, I am going too.
  14. I always gave them vin too and whatever else they asked. Just left word viper out. it was still an sx Yamaha 700 . 800 a year that way or 2200 with viper as model. That was during the time it was hard to get insurance on certain models because of names. Mach, formula, vipers and a few others were on high insurance list that no one, but a fidelity insurance company would touch. It was ridiculous to be honest.
  15. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/faq.html That sums it up pretty much. Chance of getting it from an object is low I think. Actually wash your hands after touching mask too, since it may contain virus on outside via droplets from an effective person, while wearing mask.
  16. They groom for tourism. That is why trails got shut down last March. Otherwise they could have kept system open for locals with min once a week groom.
  17. Wait and see. If this thing goes down no grooming anyway’s. No tourists no trails ofsc made that message clear.
  18. Just saying. On my viper I had to insure it as a 700 cc Yamaha sx to get a decent rate. The second I mention word viper, they barely wanted to talk to me.
  19. Take word turbo off. That will help you out.
  20. So true. I don’t know what deal is with that but hopefully it changes. Frustrating free riders getting waved right thru, since they have Val tag and insurance and ownership.
  21. Why not just put tall windshield on, and put permit on it. I love tall windshield and see no reason to go back and forth really. Only time I regret having it, is tunnel on D trail in musoka. Blake give me directions to go around it on road. Other then that I love tall windshield.
  22. That’s good to know. Musoka is different even deerhurst or hidden valley resort wouldn’t do one nights. I called both places too. Might be hard to do rap tour this winter.
