im just givin ya a hard time. ive done some riding in new york and seen some of the state and it is gorgeous once you get away from that damn city. It was strange though cause we were only an hour or so outside the city riding and there was no one else out. it was almost like you had to drive way upstate to find people that actually indulged in outdoor pursuits. real good fly fishing up there as well.

i would like to do a snowshoe/diablo/platty/whatever else trip this summer. only problem is that it seems like most of them are only open on the weekend. Oh also i met some of the nicest people ever in new york. they willingly showed this ol' hillbilly some good times. they even let me have one of their women and she wuit her job and came here with me.

Why? I've been putting in 2-3 hours/week riding outside. It's not too bad as long as you have the clothes for it. Usually an hour or so 2-3x/week. As long as you can get out on the roads. Of course, the snow derby is always a fun idea :thumb:
