About 5 minutes after passing the cabin at Boulder I smoked this tree, which is clearly in the middle of nowhere. Wasn't used to the sled yet... Hahah.

Trees are for traction. Actually the trees in the mountains have secret magnets that grow inside of them. The metal in your sled is attracted to them and of course the heavier the sled the more chance you have of getting sucked in. You just wait and you'll see what I mean. There will be one tree on the damn hill and the fricking sled will go straight for it. Its a freak of nature and not a thing to mess around with. Of course I ride a heavy Yamaha so I get sucked in to them things from clear across the damn mountain.

they are special magnets too as they actually attract aluminum.:d

I've got the tree magnet set down low but the big trees still pull hard. I wasn't even on the sled when this happened so I know it wasn't my fault!
:d

That big bastage did in the air box - the a-arms did ok! She sounded mean going down the trail without an airbox! This was a BIG hole....sounds like if you were on this ride there would have been 2 apexs stacked down there!:d:beer:

I needed the a-arms thanks to t-boning a Mark's rev last year. If your not wrecking your not riding...I guess I ride a lot!

I'm sporting two different colour a-arms up front(black and blue), a la farm sled!
