Back on the Saddle

[avidsledder]

Hey guys,

Just wanted to say that the forum posts are awesome and real friendly. Sooo much info and its great to see.

I started sledding 5 years ago and think its an amazing sport. Managed to write-off a sled or two in the process of having fun and also managed to beat the crap out of myself after being bucked off my horse in the mountains behind Bragg Creek. So after a new hip, 5 pins, 2 plates and a rod running the length of my femur, blood clots through both lungs and a broken heel, Im hoping to get back on the saddle (OF A DOO!) this winter.

No more 1-hp rides (too dangerous) Im going to jump on the XP and harness the 160hp up at Revy. I may be a bit slower than before, but sure am excited to get back up to the mountains.

Cheers guys for you being a great bunch

Welcome. This is a great site and the people here are the best! Do you still ride horses? I know it's hard to get over an accident like that and still trust them.

I've always said. " If you can't pour gas into it, you shouldn't be riding it."
