Z storage and maintenance during Winter

Man, hearing about brutal winters makes me glad to live on the West coast! Worst we'll ever get is rain (hopefully) and temps dipping around 25F at the absolute coldest

Sounds like that would make for really sucky snowmobiling. Makes me glad I live in Minnesota.

"A few hours from the Sierras". That's not snowmobiling, that's a snowmobile trip. I can drive "a few hours" and be sunning myself on a beach somewhere. Snowmobiling is where you ride your machine out of the garage and catch the trail that runs 2 miles from your house. From there your choices are some nice little trailside bar for lunch 50 miles up the trail, or maybe riding up toward the Canadian border for a few days, depending on how you've packed for the trip.

Here in Minnesota, we go visit "rain (hopefully) and temps dipping around 25F" by choice. Frankly, I'd rather have 10 degrees and 3 feet of snow than rain and 25 degree temps.

"A few hours", that's not "sunning yourself on a beach somewhere", that's a "sunning yourself on a beach somewhere trip."

LOL. Yep. I confess, come about April, if there's still snow on the ground (and there occasionally is), I start thinking seriously about a trip to the beach.
