It’s that time again; snow will fall and downhill will go.
For those of you that ride all year long, have fun and be careful.

The hyper is winterize until next March.
I will read your emails and dream about a early spring……………

My sympathy goes out too all you winter/snowed-in folk; We here in the Lucky Country just whinge about the odd shower...
Today in Wester Sydney we expect only 35C and so it goes on... a long hot summer ahead!
Good luck till Springtime

We ride year round but usually miss 3 -4 weeks in the heart of winter for ice and snow.

Now after gritty roads and ice it is our turn to have clean roads and warm temps ..YEAH

HYPER01 ... snowboarding .. snowmobile ... piss drinking!!!

Thats the awesome thing about moving south. I moved from Calgary to Austin and now I can ride pretty much whenever I want.

Cruel cold blackhearted nasty mean but with a ring of truth ... there is always ATV`s ,4 wheelers and snow machines,, skiing ,sno shoeing, snow men (people) building, tobbagganing , ice skating , fireplaces ,hot cocoa , maple syrup, Snow forts , Winter storms ,

I pile up all the snow With the help of a 10 horse power two stage snow blower.. make Mt. Petrolia in the back yard for the dogs to play King of the hill on ,,,endless fun for them ...Are expecting a litter of pups in 4 weeks from our three year old Airedale they love the snow and cold ...funny watching a puppy circus ,you have to smile ..

Winter is what you make of it ,,,Buy good cold weather gear and you can stay outside for quite some time

My nephew lives in in Belfour B.C. works at the ski resort around there. in the Summer he goes to Australia to work the ski resort down under (owned by the same company) He prefers winter..

Canadian moved South EH!! Some would consider you a QUITTER like WAYNE GRETZKEY and TERRY FOX

OR smarter than average ...Enjoy your winter it is what you make of it ...Attitude helps out for sure....
