    Weed control lawn company recommendation?

    Agreed, not A+. They had been servicing my yard for a couple years. Last Fall I had them do an aeration. Tech came out and utterly scalped and caused damage to the yard. I called them and the supervisor came out and confirmed that the tech had done two yards with a broken aerator and also...

    Cold air punch is messing up my Spring Break escape to Bentonville for some mtn biking. Gonna be low 40s down there, uggh. I hate mother nature.

    Are we even a tournament team?

    The last time I was there at the Waukee location they did not. Just the Ankeny store.

    Kyle's in Ankeny has the gel seat thing that helps measure your sit bones. There's also some decent at home hack options you can try too.

    This! It was pretty cool driving to Iowa City on Saturday and going thru one valley with no snow and then boom past the next hill boom 1 inch of snow on the ground. Funny was seeing the F150 tangled up in the center median cable that if only had made it another 1 mile would have been on dry not...

    Whats the timing looking like? Is this trending like a repeat of the last few Wed storms with rain to start?

    I think it's awesome if you pay attention to what they are explaining with each system coming thru. They are much more transparent now and explain why there is uncertainty with a storm like this. I'm not even a meteorologist but know when a forecast temp around 32 and a size-able moisture event...

    There is "snow covered" and then there is "snow covered adequately for snowmobiling". Two very different quantities for each of those.

    You also get to camp in designated/preferred areas in the overnight town. There's probably more than that but you get the idea.

    This sucks. really want to get the fat bike out after work and hit some snow covered single track. Right now it's a muddy mess and needs some good snow to freeze it.

    I don't have the timeline perfect but if I remember right he d*icked around trying to up his NIL payout and those blueboods moved on to other players to bring in. Texas was basically his last option other than staying at ISU. Or it was his handler thought he was already in at one of them but he...
