    2015 Summit X T3 174 or 163?

    I practically shed tears of joy to see both 3" tracks available. My Polaris buddies will be crying tears of shame... I've ridden both tracks on XP's extensively. I love the 163 on the XP just for the fun factor as the 174 seems a bit locked into the track it makes. 174 is super-stable...

    Amateur Video From The Last Couple Seasons

    Was bored so I decided to watch some sledding footage from the last few years. Then got the itch to edit it together a bit. Man did we have some fun!!! There is some vintage stuff until 3:00 if you want to skip ahead. We do a little friendly PRO-bashing, but all in good fun!

    Another Sledding Video

    I've been having the pre-season sledding jitters for 2 weeks now. So I uploaded another video - old enough to be shot on film but new enough that many of us will remember it. It is the sequel to the video I posted last season. Get out your popcorn, it's 80 minutes long! Enjoy...

    Fuel Conditioner for Duramax, why it's not a good idea anymore...

    We have been seeing an abnormally high rate of injector failures at our shop for the summer. Some failures involve poor quality fuel, but most of the failures have been on customer rigs that are very well maintained, and these guys regularly use fuel conditioner. Fuel conditioner has...

    High Water on the Brazeau and North Saskatchewan near Drayton Valley

    Not quite nearly as dramatic as our neighbours down south, but pretty wild amount of water nonetheless.

    Not sure if this will ever happen, but...

    Just gauging if there would be any interest in a riding clinic with Cory Micku. More curiosity than anything, I understand it's quite the paperwork to get set up to operate.

    That STUPID OLD ZX!!!

    So riding Dec 8th on Boulder with my buds, and the old 800 ZX Highmark (not stock). The old sled still hauls the mail and it is nothing but an annoyance to them: R. Micku: "I got Bikeman stage 1 kit, head, belt drive, Easy-Ride skid and 174x3 tracks. I lay down a wicked line, and that STUPID...

    Post Favourite Stuck/Stuckfest Photos!

    Inspired by Chris Browns deep deep and more deep posts which I could use more of (hint hint) I thought we should start a stuck/stuckfest photo thread to remind us of the steep and deep. Here's a start:

    Differences in riding style between ZX and XP

    This may be completely useless information to anyone who doesn't really care about the old sleds... but it's a good brain exercise for me to understand chassis dynamics. We've been trying to define some of the more subtle effects of the dramatic change in rider position, in the context of...

    A Little ZX Fun

    So, I'm posting this tucked away a little just because I don't want to inflame all the masses, LOL! I've been kickin' alot of Pro RMK's around this winter with my old 2002 ZX, and I mean kickin' them hard. Like no contest. Buddy of mine is really trying hard to get his 2012 Pro RMK 155 modded...

    Vintage Mountain Sledding, Racing, 1977-1980, 257 photos!

    When did you start sledding in the mountains?

    I finally got around to scanning some older sledding photos. A few shots of my mom and dad from Valemount, BC, starting with the winter of 1977. He was sledding in the mountains prior than that, just happened to take a Kodak 110 camera with him this time. I have photos of this vintage from...
