    Ritchie cat sales

    I heard 9 - 10.5, but not definite numbers. Funny, cause they were selling them for $9600 in the store.

    lower the price

    That's completely false. But anyways, I'm surprised that nobody has brought up the subsidies that the CDN government gives to Bombardier, who in turn screws us. Pretty much enough for me to not buy from them. And you know if the bastards weren't from Quebec they wouldn't see a dime of...

    Pine Pass 2009-2010

    Just got back from Silver Sands and while the trail is like a supercross, the snow is surprisingly good if you look for it. Duck in the trees and find all kinds of things. We rode fresh stuff mostly all day.

    Anybody had issues with the new boss seat

    I called Boss today, and experienced the best customer service I have had in a long time. The gentleman apologized for the inconvenience and then said to do whatever I have to do to the seat to make it last the rest of the year. After that, they would replace the cover for $50 like the others...

    Anybody had issues with the new boss seat

    I broke a zipper on my first ride, and another 2 after that. Good to hear they are standing up for their product. I'll be calling them today.

    what sled should i buy

    Don't buy anything less than a 154" whatever you do if you plan on doing mountain riding. Experience guys can go shorter, but beginners usually do things like pin it when they should take off slow, or not give it enough throttle and the longer track gives you more of a chance to not get stuck...

    Boss or Cat 2010 seat

    Once again I realize I'm digging up an old thread, but with only 2 rides on my new Boss seat I have 3 broken zipper tabs. Doesn't seem like much, but sure makes it a pain in the ass to get into the compartment. Is anybody else having any trouble with this?

    New SPOT information

    I was able to use my Spot 2 this weekend while sledding some incredible snow down the Pine Pass. Before we left the parking lot I put it in tracking mode and then put it in my breast pocket, and at the end of the day I took it out of tracking mode and then sent a message to my recipients...

    New SPOT information

    I bought the SPOT 2 today, came to just over $177. I then searched Google and found the promo code "HUNTINGLIFE23" and entered it in when prompted and got 1 year free tracking ($50USD) value. I went outside and tried the test message, and it said I was doing good and gave my long and lat. I...

    New SPOT information

    Once I got into town I phoned around and Alta-Comm Wireless Inc has 5 of them in stock right now for $169. The cheapest I found on the internet was from a non-profit group and was $149.99USD + shipping, which makes it more than buying it in Edmonton. Looks like local it is for me.
