I just know I will receive some WTF responses to this but here goes anyway. I NEED to disable the QE on my Renagade. The unit is ridden almost exclusively in the big dunes with the odd blast on the frozen lake and some lease road running etc. No big mud for this old guy. The QE causes some...
This is sort of a combination post of "my solution to the trailer issue", "show yor rig", and "now I've seen everything". To put your mind at ease, I have a 3 place enclosed, 2 place open tilt deck, 2000 Chev with a deck and this:
Eat your heart out Tyler G.
Just got back from a week in the dunes. I've always been partial to dirt bikes or sport quads in the sand but this trip changed my outlook somewhat. Rode the bike first day, switched to my Renegade, back to the bike, took the Griz out for 1/2 a day. The Griz is enjoyable but just way too tame...
Can you believe it? All my riding partners are either working or in the mountains this weekend. And I want to go to Swan Hills both days. Anybody else want to hook up? I live north of Stony/Spruce Grove.
This is ridiculous. Went to a Doo dealer (St. Albert) and asked for a belt for the old Summit. $158 !!!!. Checked around on line and the same belt is around $85. Any suggestions as to how to get our local dealers to get their heads out of their collective rears so we can support them and not...
Just got back to the motorhome from a day playing in the snow. Snowed about a foot while we were out on Gooseberry Mesa. Where the hell is Gooseberry Mesa you ask? Just outside of St. George Utah. No snow in town and +15, head up into the hills and big snow. The catch is we don't have our sleds...
Whoever is doing the damn snow dance focusing on Revy, take a break for a few days. Just got back and we needed a skid steer to clean out the driveway of our sled house, street is 1.5 vehicles wide and you can't see cars coming out of driveways. Frisby on Saturday was just right. 3 to 4 feet of...
I know this sounds silly asking if anybody wants to go for a ride Saturday this weekend (November 17) but here goes anyway. I know the swamps aren't frozen yet but? Anybody want to make a day trip to Whitecourt, Buck Lake, whereever? Not into swamp riding, just like to ride.
Sledders do have a life when there is no snow. Casually motoring down (up?) Hwy 2 this evening and got caught in a small traffic jam. Spotted a little red Dodge quad cab with Snow and Mud.com in the rear window, a cute little dog hanging out the right rear window. I won't post the personal...
Spent last weekend in Valemount. Had the choice, sleds or quads. Chose the fat tire things and we had a blast. Hooked up with some locals (Alpine Country Rentals) and went to Kinbasket Lake. Rode the mud flats and foresty trails. Stuck? Yep, winched the locals out all day. Neat place. Rode Brule...
Well it's that time of year. Again. The new sleds are out, good memories of another sled season and time to go racing. Off to Kamloops this weekend then one more sled ride in Sicamous. Take the clubs along and get in 18 on a rest day. Nice to have found this site and we'll be back about October...
Here we go again. Just figured out why we tolerate high gas prices, broken trucks, cranky trailers, horrible road conditions and road food.
SNOW and SUNSHINE. Got up at 4 AM on Friday and headed for McBride. Met 3 others and off to Belle Mountain. Had to wait about 15 minutes for the grader to...
Headed out to the Trailseekers poker rally on Sunday. Standing in the shop sweeping out water on the floor from the sleds and mentally complaining. Reality check #1, be thankful you have a heated shop for the toys. Standing in the yard deciding whether to take the enclosed or open trailer...
A couple of pics of my oldest grandson Corey at Sicamous last weekend. Crazy kid didn't learn that from me. Oh well, 150 HP and pro class MX skills produce some cool shots.
Anybody headed for Valemount, McBride this weekend? The brother and I are headed out Friday at 4 AM. Would like to hook up with a couple of other dudes. Maybe somebody is thinking of riding alone (!) and would like to join up. Staying at the Chalet, haven't decided on an area yet.
Anybody?
You would think I could organize myself better but I need someone to go out on the snow with this weekend. All the regulars are working/sick/wifeing. Have both Saturday and sunday days available. Whitecourt?
Scratch the Whitecourt thing. Dales funeral is tomorrow.
When out to the Trailseekers...
OK I give in. Posted my recent trip to Valemount and had a few requests for pictures. Forgot the &^%$ camera so here is a link to some neat scenery from McBride last year. Just the 4 of us made all those tracks. Took us all day to make big trenches everywhere but somebody has to do it. Also on...
Just got back from Valemount. Rode Clemina Friday and Saturday. Friday, the trail up was brutal but no trail fee so I guess it all worked out. Snowed HARD all day, couldn't get above the first clearing before Goats. Tree and meadow riding all day in 3 feet of fresh. Creeks are not frozen yet...
