New to sledding...

Hey everyone. I'm fairly new to the whole sledding thing, just bought my first real machine a few days ago, and I'm looking for people to ride with, preferably anywhere within 5 hours drive or so. I have ridden a bit before, but this is the first sled I actually own and I'd like to go out with a few people some time and get into some mountain riding and things like that. If anyone has something planned or wants to start something up and needs another person, I'd love to go. How far is the Golden riding area from here, or Revelstoke? (I live in Strathmore, just outside of Calgary).

I do have a truck, but no sled deck. Like I said, I would like to get into sledding pretty heavily this year, as all I have to worry about is work and not school.

If anyone wants to set something up, let me know.

Thanks,

Jim Mercer

What days do have off, I'm always looking for someone to go out with me midweek, most of the time just a day trip to Golden. I have room for 3 sleds in all.

Another way of finding some riding partners is to join the Calgary Snowmobile Club, they do club organized rides about every month, great way to meet other riders and get introduced to new riding areas
