Ready to ride other than one more addition, which is the Sled Armor front Bumper I purchased from RodMods at the show. Have the 9" 2 wheel kit installed, black seat, Lumberjack wrap, bar bag, skis, recoil, few odds and ends. But other than that im G2G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH and may be grabbing a Bikeman clutch kit shortly as well!

The worst ones on the motox bikes were the tank wraps if a guy didn't 1st drain and de-fume the vapors out.... :/ Usually got lucky and had my sponsors do the decals ;)

im in season switch change. i love it. just picked up the enlcosed from a 2500$ brake job(owee). stocking up on oils and supplies, searching around for some filming equipment. getting ready to pick up my new sled, preping the shop for late night drunken repairs, going through my gear seeing if i need to order some new stuff. getting the old tow rig ready to go, adding a fuel tank, some studded winters, air bags. gotta go through my spare sled from head to toe incase i have to throw it into action LOL. watched all my sled videos...up im almost ready. common snow

november is always an extremely expensive month for me. but i wouldnt trade it for anything LOL

Man thats got to one of the best things about sledding! I love being in the garage drinking beer telling lies fixing sleds and all that kind of stuff! Just if i drink to much I got to redo stuff the next day lol!

The phase of selling out after years of riding, guiding and enjoying the sport that started for me in the mid 1970s.
Skidoo summit, M8 Cat, Yamaha T,nytro, riding gear and sled deck....all on the chopping block.

That's a bummer! I was looking forward to seeing you and Kare on the hill again this year!

Not quite ready for a ride here... just made room in the garage to park the truck out of the snow and gave it a tune up, avy training today (great job Lori!). Now to get a beacon, fill my avy bag with survival gear, and hopefully get good news from Dean to pick up the sled with a small bill (though i'm afraid my issue will add up fast)

Im in the pumped stage, got a new xm supposed to be ready in two weeks:rolleyes: should be quite a difference compared to the yamaha boat anchor I had, pretty much all new Klim gear so it will be nice to be dry and warm for a change.

Upgraded my trailer this year to an actual snowmobile trailer, instead of using a cargo trailer with barn doors. Last but not least I upgraded from a gasser to a diesel truck this year. I'm more than excited! prob wont even snow this year.

In the buyers remorse phase. If I can unload the xm I'll be one happy guy. Get rid of the mod and I'll be in the "on the way out" phase for this year
?

Did you mention this to them? From what I understand they sold what they ordered, may not be a big deal to back out. worth asking.

Got sled almost ready, been watching videos for months, logging into Snow and Mud every hour, and giving serious consideration to taking a rip tomorrow under the power lines in Chestermere!

I'm in Shepard, and going to run the power lines too.
Look for a red Iguana, with a orange back pack!!!
