They're kinda hard to ride cause once you pick up a little speed it just wheelies even with all my weight forward. The pallette jacks are fun to ride though. See I can still ride in the winter.

I'm sure you can squeeze out more than 2 months, but it does feel like that sometimes doesn't it
And welcome from those of us even further north. Definitely try for Grattan, it is a great time with great people  |

| Re: new to the site Welcome to the site. Winter is good for practicing your wheelies because you don't have to go that fast to do a good 12 o'clock.
