  1. I think we definitely have to re-think nuclear.
  2. If I thought I could ride out of Millinocket, I might try and get up. The extra couple of hours each way to get to Ft. Kent make it less appealing
  3. How far north do you need to go for decent riding? Houlton? Milli? Or even further?
  4. But what about the song "Over the river and through the woods"? They explicitly say "The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh, Through (the) white and drifted snow!". There are no St. Patrick's Day snow related songs. This obviously means that March isn't a real snow month
  5. My understanding is that they are pricing based on how much it will cost to purchase fuel to refill their tanks
  6. The beauty of electric motors is that there are far fewer moving parts to break.
  7. Check that link I posted above for the electric snowmobile. The company is also developing an electric jet ski. If it’s anything like the snowmobile, it will be a blast to ride.
  8. You guys need to get one of these. The company had their American roll out yesterday in Stowe and I got to hop on one. It was a blast https://www.taigamotors.com/products/nomad
  9. Remember those guys a few years ago who liked skiing the trees up at Jay so much that they cut their own line down to 242? I think they were fined something like $17,000 for unauthorized cutting on state land.
  10. @ORH_wxmanis the RBOB, crack spread expert around here. He has always had some good input regarding oil prices. There was an interesting price split when I went to fill up today. Most stations seemed to be in the $4.24 range but there are a couple of full service/garages that are closed on Sundays but you can still get gas using their pay at the pump. Those places were $3.99. I imagine they'll be upping the prices as soon as they open tomorrow morning.
  11. Yes, he goes to Bolton a lot. It’s located between Waterbury and Burlington. It has the only night skiing of note in the state. Lots of school programs go to Bolton.
  12. It’s scary. Even a rock star can get a stadium full of people chanting. It’s like people just get sucked into the energy.
  13. A sizable percentage of Americans seem to want that too.
  14. That’s why Sunday sucks so much. I went riding in northern New Hampshire today. Trails were good but thin. Beautiful day to ride though.
  15. See my post above, it’s straight up terrorism.
  16. The fire is in a training building. Not that you want a fire or military engagements of any type at a nuclear facility but there has been no increase in background radiation. https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/top-wrap-1-europes-largest-nuclear-power-plant-fire-after-russian-attack-mayor-2022-03-04/
  17. Because Putin is a terrorist. We can argue about NATO/EU encroachment on Russia’s bubble but you can’t argue about the tactics. Unfortunately, the longer the Ukrainians hold out, the more likely he is to go full Chechnya on them.
  18. I read an article today about the Ukrainian defense industry. Apparently they are pretty advanced and have been supplying the Chinese with weapons for quite a while. Edit: here is a link https://mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/idUSKCN2L00VI
  19. If I was building a house, I would trade square footage for spray foam, the hydronic in floor heating, a propane powered whole house generator and other efficiency upgrades.
  20. 3" overnight. It makes me feel even worse about what is in store for Sunday
  21. Was surprised to look out and see nearly 2” new
