I've had pretty decent luck with Mudlites as a do everything tire. I've got 27x10s and 27x12's on my Rincon, and 26x9's and 26x12's on my 650i Brute.

For those of you out there that have tracked your rides with GPS, would you be willing to share the data? If you're willing to share, I can handle any type of file format you may have: .gpx, .kml, .kml, .plt, .shp, .dwg (with attached projection!). Any that I get I'll redistribute, I'm sure...

Has anyone else out there tracked the trails at Cataract, Etherington, where ever, and is willing to share? Any file format is fine, .gpx, .kml, .kmz, .plt, .shp, .dwg (with attached projection!), whatever you've got I can deal with it, and I'm more than willing to reformat and redistribute...

Made it out Saturday, and a big thanks to Dave and Mike for helping dig/pull me out, and for letting me tag along to learn the trails!

I'm going to head out tomorrow as well. Very new, so would definitely like to hook up with some others. Hopefully get some tips on how to set my suspension up too

So I bought an 08 Nytro MTX 153" this year, totally stock, and so far I really like it. However I use it mostly for work, and that seems to be having a detrimental effect on the 2.25(I think) camoplast track on it now. I'm hoping to get some feedback on what I should be looking for for a good...

I'm looking at heading out this weekend as well, would like to take it easy. Only got on a sled the first time this year, and so far I've been limited to a few hundred km on a cleared pipeline ROW up north this winter, not exactly the best snow. So I'm eager to get out and play/learn in some...

There's also no such thing as a Canadian Gallon. There are Imperial Gallons (4.54L), and US Gallons(3.78L). One more indication as to why the imperial system is antiquated, and why L/100km is a more straight forward system. Not to mention the fact that "we" as a country don't use miles. In my...

It's true that no truck is going to be "good" on fuel, it's still a big concern. I put 70000km on my truck last winter, at an average of 23L/100 km, I burned over 16000L of gas. In my diesel getting even 17L/100km, the same mileage would have burned arond 12000L. The cost of those extra 4000L...

I loved my Hemi, save the fuel mileage. Had an '08 Power Wagon, on 35x12.5 Toyo MT's, 7' Deck, and a 6' drawer tool box. Best I ever saw on the highway (with no quads) was 18L/100km. With quads on the deck, running between Whitecourt and Swan Hills all last winter I was averageing 29L/100km...

I've got no problems leaving it at home, but that ones a bag of worms. The queens printer says "no off-highway" vehicles, but does not define snow vehicles as OHV's. However the traffic safety act (also the queens printer), defines them differently. You can also get into the "what is a snow...

I too am new to the sledding world, and souds like this would be a good place to get my feet wet. What is the general view of tracked ATVs running on sled trails? I've got a set I've used for work, so I know they can do quite well, depending on the snow, but I've heard a lot of mixed thoughts...

Where is this? I bought my first sled this year, and am not really sure where to start looking for trails and people to ride with. Definitely want to get out on some trails before I show at a mountain as the stupid un-preparred new guy.
