CALL THE WHAAAAMBULANCE - some peeps overdosed on hero cookies. this thread was started to make you think - take it for what it is, words on a screen. Don't like it? turn off your computer and go riding if you think its safe or sit on your sled in the garage and make motor sounds if you don't.
Right in my sig: "The price of anyhting is the amount of life you exchange for it." What do you think it refers to?
Posting an opinion on someone else's opinion? ....hypocrits?
Taking it personal and feeling compelled to justify/defend why you went out riding last weekend? get over yourself.
I have a 2 yr old and could not imagine leaving her beautiful face without an understanding of why daddy is no longer around. This is how I justify not riding in bad conditions. You justify your actions in your own mind to yourself, I could care less because I won't be there to dig you out. Been riding over 20 yrs (actual 20 yrs - not internet 20 yrs), seen it happen to 3 peeps I called friends. You can't imagine how bad it will tear you apart. Mother nature does not discriminate - she doesn't care about where you live, your age or how long you tell people you've been riding. She will take you in less than a heartbeat and leave everyone else with just your memory. Think about that before you load your sled.
Frisby slid 2 yrs ago - How safe is it today? can anyone tell me right now?
Driving to and from the hill is more dangerous than sledding - yeeeaaahhhhh ok probably?........people at the gun range aim at the bullseyes, so standing down range between 2 targets is probably safe too, but would you still put yourself in that situation?
"I'm experienced" - yeah, me too..........Experience as a general comprises of or skill of some thing or some event gained through involvement in or exposure to that thing or event.[SUP][1][/SUP]. Experience recognizes the significance of something like a special bulletion and reminds you there will be plenty of other riding days.
Coming from Sask to ride the hills - plan alternate days since you can't control the weather. Starting your trip with a bad decision usually results in more bad decisions.
Be safe everyone.
So why did you feel it in your POWER to even bark then? Posting opinions on other peoples opinions is what M&S is about, why go on a form and just lurk around?
FRISBY TREES ARE AWESOME!!!!!!! Boulder Trees are awesome.......
The sledder compaction that has taken place around the cabin in the trees and medows sure does help.
