    You California boys probably don't see much of it. It is actually a rare form of soil called mud. It happens in areas of the world were humidity runs the roost. Once the average daily humidity of 85% climbs a little, these things called clouds (you guys probably don't see those much either), start to become engorged. After the conditions of the "clouds" become right, it starts to actually rain. Now I know I keep using complicated relatively unknown terms like "mud", "clouds", and "rain", don't fear it gets worse.

    We also have another season called "fall". This one may confuse you Cali boys as well. As seemingly impossible, the average daily high temperature actually falls below 50 degrees (F). That's right, the leaves literally die and fall right off the trees. I know, I know..blasphemy you say. Don't worry it gets worse.

    Like something out of a horror film for you Cali boys, the season is called winter. This season brings about a rare phenomenon called "snow". Sometimes the average daily temp never exceeds 10 degrees (F), and that rare "rain" thing turns to "snow". It's when the rain actually freezes and you can no longer ride dirt bikes! I know what your thinking. You need proof. Well, some on up to MI sometime and I'll give you a ride on a snow-machine. They are antique looking things that drive on top of the snow. They are slow and never much fun...barely needing a helmet. :roll:

    Why, I believe I'll stay right here! It does rain here, though. When I first moved here from Texas, I saw what the locals called a rain. They were scurrying around like it was a toad strangler or something. Hell, that was just a light mist falling. What we usually referred to as a sunshower. And... I think it has snowed here twice in the last 50 or so years. The worst kind of mud we see is the crap left on your car after the sunshower spots all the dust on it.

    Terrible place to live! Year 'round riding conditions... maybe I should move.. :)

    It's sort of a long story, but just like everyone else; we too are fighting for existence. I figured I'd give some of the guys a chance to see what we've built. After a few days and some opportunity for everyone to see it in the "few posts since last visit", pull them down.

    I would not want any sort of ammunition for the opposition to be allowed. And on the absolute narrowest possibility that these could fall into the wrong hands, I decided better safe then sorry. Not that the pics are harmful or anything, I just don't want the A-hole who's trying to piss on our fun to even see what our property looks like on the inside...

    Sorry. PM me if interested in riding it or seeing any pics. The post only got like 10 views anyway, so I'm sure no one is sweating to check them out again... :roll:

    I remember the TT thread a few months back about those greenies surfing our forums to locate "Favorite" riding areas so they could get them closed. I am not in the buisiness of hating people, but I hate those greenies!

    I swear I only ventured over to TT for a quick look, and I didn't enjoy it, I will never do it again!
