I've heard you can get tires mounted on your sled - that way you don't need to worry about the lack of snow -- any truth to the rumour ??? I'm being to wonder if the season ended before it started -- the trail past my place never opened - corn in the field ( I guess the farmer never intended to let out the land to OFSC use ) -- and if it like last year MID FEB snow was gone on all local trails -- it's sad to have to trailer when you live in the snowbelt - would be sadder if I'd forked out the money fora trail pass already ( I think I'll hold off this year and just ride the lake if we get more snow ) Good luck to all you other local snowbelt riders
