Well i sit here smiling :d , glad to be back home, did the trek to mc b (my fav sled spot) , with my staff a few customers total group 28 plus me,
every one had a ball, thanks to pipes, for being a team leader again, and looking after some newbies.. as well as Mark my service guy , and Les our newest friend - who has a much hours on a sled in mc b as i wish i had...
we ended up at renshaw both saturday and sunday, trail up saturday was awesome. hardly rough at all, sunday was typical spring conditions, up and back ( wet and sloppy with bumps:d) how many can personally recognize each km marker. ... km 29 on the way up is like an old flame you dont want to forget, and km 1 on the way down is like a hot tube and a good shot of gibsons and coke.... lol
conditions were average a bit firm, but good, we were xtra xtra xtra careful with all the avalanches, that have been happening, and Les made sure everyone had a refresher course on snowpack, location and group rules, very professional a great addition to our group.
lots of fun had by all only two little mishaps -
_Johnny Dangerous was racing his sled to the bottom of a small drift
final score , sled 1 - Johnny 0 plus one puffy wrist..
cross 7 (johnnys ride) less one windshield, and
- Scotty the flying 800Mod rider - tried to take two jumps in a row!!
- did handstand on the bars- flipped over the hood- got run over- got back pack ripped off (16 x 151 x 2") jumped to his feet and chased sled down to stop it before it got the fresh pine tree smell- great reflexes.. my wife was one witness who couldnt stop laughing, bar none she said funniest thing she s seen a guy do on the sled.
final score Scotty 1 sled undamaged- back pack - 0
the 2010 s worked really well, although our 153 m8 wasnt as strong as the 162 but they both worked awesome, the m1000 snopro was still the quickest, and had the most power-
the m8 were very quick to hit the power and pull consistantly, the only thing is these units had no miles on them. so they weren t really broken in. The new seat is a big hit and we never heard a negative comment on it at all. especially when you find out retail is 399.00 yes canadian, and storage you can put a tarp in there....! thats storage. we did through a can on one m8 just to get some noise and yes the silencer is the same as the m1 that s what we put on it and mbrp. so it was a great 2nd trip stayed at the nv mountain view resort cabins just outside mcbride. they were spacious clean and had lots of room for our trailers and trucks, ....will stay there again for sure....
well hot tubs waiting .... play safe... play hard..... and never forget her birthday.....
