Bonfire Magnum Gortex...... Embossed Purple..... ya..... about the color of Barney I guess...... maybe a bit brighter.....

They were on clearance at "The House" (www.thehouse.com) only 45 bucks..... after I saw the price for Gortex snowboard pants the purple didn't seem so bad..... my wife disagrees..... she avoids me when I where them in public..... :lol:

Wait until you see the jacket..... :lol:

Oh well..... they keep me warm and dry......

I never claimed to be a fashionista

Here's the scoop.

There is 12" ice where the party trailer is set up. Cold weather this week is certainly adding to the good ice.

Friday afternoon/evening is set up and pre-party.

Saturday there is a rider's meeting at 11:00 a.m. First competition starts at 11:30 a.m. Forecast for Saturday looks like 12-15 mph.

Sunday is an open day with activities TBD.

I will be there with freshly sharpened skis (still no snow), ice buggy and kitesled. I've got the black Toyota SUV with the Thule kite carrier on top. :smilegrin:

Hope to see everyone.
