    As a fellow Saskatonian, I must say this has been most unusual. we had 28 degree weather a little more than a week ago.....and then snow! It is crazy.....5 degrees and sunny right now, and I am contemplating on going for a ride. Suppose to warm up starting this weekend. As for snow here, there is barely a trace. Northwest of here got it worse I believe.

    Ya, what a crappy bit of extra winter. It was the coldest weather we'd had here in Calgary since February.... Oh well, I'll take the good with the bad as I've riden every month this year and I just hit the 3000 km mark so far this season.

    Saskatchewan rules! I'm from Oxbow (SE Corner) originally, university in Saskatoon.

    Typical Saskatchewan exports having a conversation: "Oh ya, I know so and so from there, do you know them"? "Yup, when to school with his younger brother"......

    Simpsons eh, doesnt ring a bell. What do they do?

    Don't know. Grandfathers brother long dead but he had family. But Oxbo as most smaller prairie communities are definitely more sociable and one knows another better there. Besides I have a brother down in Victorville California and I always ask Californians if they know him. They always say yes and he is a f%$#&*g idiot. So I do know they know him well. :pound: :laugh: :rofl: :lol:
