Last year we had 30" here in SE Indiana, so in late Feb with predictions of another storm on the way and getting tired of shoveling our 100' driveway by hand (which I have done for the last 30 years) I decided to buy a blade for the old 9N Ford tractor. I got it home and hooked up. Well, the storm never came and so far this year only about 2" total, so the 9N just sits in the barn waiting.

And here I thought is was the new skis I purchased!

here's my only concern w/ riding- in Nov we had a few inches which coated trees/grass and...dirt roads, so I took the G/S out for a few hours!!! Trouble was that afternoon the temps fell sharply into the teens so did not was the bike. When the temps came up 4 days later, my aluminum had actually been etched by road "salt"-calcium chloride.

It makes me uneasy to take the RS out.
