    • There is still good things happening if you look for it vs the bad and how people are spinning it…..ASC has been working away at a new new extension for a groomer storage with all donated money. 
    • River is iced and snow covered, snow is adding up. It is shaping up, for a start. Ski
    • If you have business A that operates in 100 locations across Canada and location 1.2.3 see a decline in business, the business needs to decide to keep presence at a loss or break even to weather the storm or shut it down based on reduced sales, local hurtles, provincial incentives, long range outlook, etc…regardless of what they sell.  All my point was is if shops are closing here in Ontario, I wonder if the same is happening in other provinces to the same degree based on declines regionally within the Powersports world.    BC has a huge mountain segment that I’m sure isn’t doing great, but how bad is it, QC has a large tourist attraction in this sport with a much more favorable season and NB seems to have a large Powersports group that from my understanding are made up more of older machines vs new iron…hence my three examples for comparison purposes of places closing within the Powersports industry. 
    • Same industry, sure, but not necessarily the same challenges day to day. The only similarities a shop in one province would have to another is a sign on the outside, bringing a unit in - putting on the floor - and seeing it go out the door.   Beyond that - it's hard to compare anything really.
    • I should add that I'm in the Beaverton area, and usually ride out of Fenelon Falls, Gravenhurst, Port Perry or dash up Lake Simcoe from home and hit the trails from Brechin or Orillia. I am happy to drive anywhere within a 4hr radius for a day ride.    I'm also an early bird typically. I get up for work ~3:30am most days so I take advantage and park and get on the trails before 7am most of the time. I like to get the bulk of my ride done before lunchtime as it is so much more enjoyable when the trails are empty.    That being said, I'm happy to ride from somewhere early and then meet up with others 100km down the trail later.    One trail I haven't been on yet that I'd like to check out sometime is the A trail from Whitney up through the park. I have no reservations about doing that trip solo, but having a few more people along surely can't be a bad thing.
