Check the regional forums. If you can't find something or don't feel like scrolling through pages, use the search option at the top of the page.

Hey you got a good 60 days of riding between blizzards up there.

This is a REALLY stupid question, but does some snow up in Michigan pack well enough to make jumps with? Just curious.

I never had any luck, but by the time the snow was falling most of the time my bike was torn getting an overhaul. Most Michiganders are bike-tech pros at a young age able to rip down a bike to it's last bearing, clean it to perfection, and put it back together. You gotta get your bike fix somehow when everything is froze over.

17 (check user profile). I know you can't use snow, just wanted to see if SR tried it. It would have been funny if he did. Oh yeah, I've already done one year in college, so don't start thinking I'm naive.

User profiles are hardly ever correct...

They're at least as accurate as asking on the internet ;)

If he somehow said it was different than what it is in his user profile then there would be a problem.
