Sledding Code of Ethics

[MOMMA]

Hi,
I was wondering if we could compile a sledding Code of Ethics. You know like never leave a man in the bush. Simple rules and tips for encouraging courtesy and responsibility on the hills. Came accross a few young bucks who may not have "sled sense". Reminded me of Sled Ed.
Thanks

#1 is pack out what you pack in. I hate to see garbage lying around left behind by idiots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

-from grade 2: Never hesitate to help those in need.
-Wave to fellow sledders to say "yo, what is up homeslice".
-Always take pictures of your stuck buddies, for blackmail and/or future reference.
-Don't #@$^%$^ steal other people's stuff, ever.

How about if you have to fix your sled on the trail, move the dam thing over to the side. I almost hit someone coming down from renshaw because someone decide to knock the ice off his running boards. yes I slowed down but there was barely enough room to get pass him and the other two sleds across the trail.

This isn't really ethics, but something I try to do is pack extra food. We went out with the nicest guys yesterday. There were a few sleds down and out, so we were a lot longer than expected. I roasted up some chicken in the morning for our day. The extra warehouse pack came in handy for all the guys. Could be the Ukrainian mom in me, I love feeding people. I can't offer much as far as muscle, or mechanics, but If I can help in the food department I'm happy.

Sound like the first rule should be, Follow Sleddingmom around for roast chicken.

After you Spank the guy on the Doo or the Polaris always be gracious and never boast. Always remember the playing field is never even. Compliment them on their valiant effort and remember to be conscious of the fact that they are riding inferior products. Remember to take into consideration that they have spent their hard earned dollars to purchase and modify their machines only to disscover that they have made a big misstake. Practice compassion on the less fortunate. Smile and be the bigger man.

You must have been in that same spot along time while day dreaming at the bottom of the hill, watching your friends and others ride past you while you wait for your smokies to cook in your muff pot with your engine running. bla bla bla

Remember we are always in the public eye. So be courtious when filling up, crossing roads and driving down the hi-ways.

Always remember the children are watching.....lead/teach by example
If your gonna ride the organized trails..buy a pass
It is never OK to cut a fence for access to "that field"
Always be prepard for someone to crest that hill while riding an uphill trail.
When your hauling your trailer on the highway @ 105km/h get the hell out of the left lane.....It's MINE.
When your buddy is drunk...don't let him ride (sled or fat chicks) if he insists knock him out (sled)....take pictures (fat chick)

Always be prepaired to sacrifice your best day of riding for a fellow sledder. Even if its as minor as taking a buddy into the Hospital for broken bones, right Noel
I've had fellow sledders make that sacrifice for me in the past when my sled broke down WAY out there and it turned into a rescue mission on sleds instead of a Coptor Sling and I believe what comes around goes around.

this was mentioned a few posts up i just wanted to add

in order to have a voice about our riding areas

no matter if you ride the trails or not you should be buying trail passes

there is too much talk about areas being closed off to sleds
