We have been paying $1.38 a litre ($5.25 US gallon) here in Yellowknife since the gas jumped over a year ago, and the price never dropped at all. Yellowknife is maybe 500 miles or so from the big oil sands Ft. MacMurray, Alberta. Everyone here is pissed at how he are getting hosed.

I'd say what you have there is a Tecumseh 5hp snowblower, with 120v electric start, here's a couple pics of my 1970's minibike, I resurrected a couple years ago. It's a $20 yard sale find (with $200 thrown at it for wheels, clutch, sprockets, chain, seat, cables and a 5hp Tecumseh motor from the...

This bike, I think is my all time favorite build. The Shinya Kimura Knucklehead, (most of his bikes are in my top 10) Say what ya' want about the manifold/pipe but it is unique & cool! It has the tire height balance, as well as a whole host of other design elements I'm striving for in my XS400...

Not up here! Seems like we got hit with the shit a little late this year, last year our 1st snow was Sept 21, and it was a cold winter. Generally Halloween is when the snow is here to stay (till about early-mid April). . . . One thing about living here is . ... A white Christmas . . ...
