Next meeting for the PGSC is Oct 28 2015 at 6 pm at the Scott Road clubhouse. Pizza and pop by donation.

You have to see where you are going!

The only one that work in deep snow is the helmut mount ones.

BRP has a Skidoo Gear Tester program, so I wonder who we could talk to get the pDrive added to the list? The pDrive needs some mountain punishment before we know if this is the next great leap forward by BR in mountain riding technology.

Domestic damage? I thought we were going to see a wife gone wild with a rolling pin on the hood!

I have only used the P-85 on my last three sleds, and the main reason I choose that clutch over the TRA was the responsiveness when needed in tough tight terrain and RPM stability at various altitudes and load conditions. That would be about 14,000km. The reason for the intense interest in the...

What old race clutch? In the 60's Ski doo used a comet clutch on their race sled, is that the old clutch?

I checked in to see what issues people might be having with the full size Ranger 800. Nothing to read. Nice.

There was some talk at the last PG Club meeting about pulling down the Torpy Cabin this fall. The cabin is always a crap hole mess, left behind from crap hole people, and the club takes the blame for enabling the situation. Outsiders think it is club members that leave the mess behind, so the...

No clutching change, equals no change in engine horse output. When you make changes to an engine, and the clutch requires more weight to pull the RPM down, your engine is making more power.

Pack it in, pack it out, and don't leave anything on the stick. Can't have the Caribou whinners smelling us when they can't even stand the thought of us being in "their" mountains. The Precautionary Principle the MoE uses says, only the snowmobilers poo stinks.

The spec sheet on the 2013 XM and the spec on the 2015 T3 shows the same 7.2" diameter of the drive sprocket. The drivers are the same size. The difference is the 2013 runs the 2.86" track, and the 2015 T3 runs a 3.00" track lug so they dropped a cog off the driver, or they would have had to...

I just checked the trail pass per day at McBride is $25/day each. It isn't the cost of club membership that is detering people, it is something else. Maybe it is time that the PG Club takes over all trail access for Kakwa and Torpy? That would be one way to earn money instead of selling memberships.

I'm not so sure it is the money. I was wondering if the closing down of 90% of the mountain areas would result in more interest in snowmobilers banning together in the various clubs in BC, but that didn't happen. Instead it seems that the Ride-for-Free snowmobilers blamed the clubs and their...

In Ontario a membership costs about $250/ year. I don't know how they enforce it, but they sign up thousands of members in each club across Quebec and Ontario. In BC the clubs are all insured for the volunteer workers and directors insurance policy under a provincial umbrella policy, either...
