Hey, what part of upstate? I grew up right between Niagara Falls and Rochester.

This will be my first winter in the twin. Apparently, the stock tires are summer, not all-season. I've been on the fence about getting a set of all-season or snow tires. Tough call because it's so spotty up here.

As a die-hard winter driver lemme tell ya, snow up here is nothing like NY. No salt here and it's treacherous. Sand & gravel doesn't help much.

If I catch any, there could be an early barbecue!

Know what you're talking about... Lived in Saratoga, NY for eight years...absolutely hated the winter!

Damn, wish I would have checked this thread earlier... I was out today with nothing to do. Did you ever get anyone to go? If not, I'd be down for tomorrow, even if it's a little wet.
