Today was the day that I winterized my ski for the season. Unless we get a record breaking heat spell like a few years ago. Since my ski was a leftover when I bought it this spring, I put an hour meter on it. Only being able to ride weekends and not living at the lake or coast. I put 16.5 hours on it. How many hours on your machine?

I put 50 hours down on my superjet in the 2 or 3 months between my rebuild and my injury. I put 8 running hours on my tach that daytona (2014) alone in 4 days. Now it mostly sits... upward swing recently though, and gas prices are down.

Hawaii is so locked down on riding i didnt feel safe going out alone for a mile then riding alone for hours. So 0 hours. Texas shall fix that :)


And I'll ride all winter because Houston winter is Alaskan summer.

I've run 37 gallons... I don't know what that equates to in hours though. When I rebuild my motor and pump this offseason I'll also invest in a PET 2000.

All of our lakes were flooded earlier this year, so I only got maybe 50 or so hrs in this year. But it was a 101 here yesterday, so my season is far from over.

I'm probably at 40 or so gallons this summer so far [probably 50-75hrs], but its only september so who know's how much I'll keep going. It won't even get below 100* this month I bet.

Alright, I don't feel so bad about how few hours are on my ski. When you have an hour meter on a ski it takes a lot longer than I realized to ride one hour. I would ride a few more weekends but my local lake closes the gate after the long weekend and the temperatures are cool enough that is time to break out the racing quad. Bring on the snow. :):):)

Step 1) Estimate out how many hrs you rode this year

^ I like this, but how about:

1) Estimate hours riding
2) Estimate hours wrenching
3) Divide step 1 by step 2
4) See negative number and cry!

I refuse to add up how much money I spend on this sport.

I've put 10 Hours on my KDX since June, but my riding season doesn't end.

I have a thread somewhere showing the rules and regulations but basically it all boils down to the face they heavily zoned everything and the jetski zone is quite far OR small because a ton of other sports come first (kitesurfers for near shore activity, surfers for waves, not allowed to launch from anywhere but a few harbors, etc). So I never felt comfortable because they are very specific on rules and they say I have to travel to these zones in a "straightest line as possible" so no making sure your jet ski is running great by the shore or anything.

I'll have left after 11 months. Nah man, was working 55 and getting paid for 40. Got sick of not seeing daylight and being too tired to do anything. I'm not going to waste my good years hating my job/life because some company expects me to sit behind a computer 11 hours a day. I actually was in Alaska doing "fire training" and loving every minute of it.
