The snow dust was horrendous! Sal Rosenberg went home early cuz he’s working today and We only went about 110 but found a foot plus of fresh NE of town. 90% untracked. Awesome day other than the frostbite on my cheek from wearing my FXR helmet cuz I misplaced my Oxygen helmet cord. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were only 4 sleds and the guy leading takes a narrow trail that nobody had been on. We barely made it thru a water/mudhole almost 30ft long 2ft deep after the ice got broke open. After that it was 3 more small water spots. The fkn goof said it was groomed the day before. I called him a fkn idiot and spent a couple hours in the garage trying to de-ice and clean the mud off Not fun. No water holes up here on any of the trails marked open. Found some small creeks on a couple short cut trails I take but nothing serious luckily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As good of a storm we got here in Maine, we really need another melt then another storm so the light fluffy stuff settles and hardens, and another foot comes down. It snows almost constantly up in the hills so we should be good in a couple weeks. Saw a big ass Moose too yesterday. He was gone before I could get the phone out. Around 900 ish miles so far this season. Could be worse, one of our riding buds spent 40 hrs in the woods and had to get rescued because they got their Timbersleds buried in a ravine. Hard pass on that experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard pass on that experience. The snowfall then melts here have made a perfect base and any snow that comes now will only add to it. I'm at like 930 for the season. Relaxing next weekend then the first weekend/week of February we have a 1200 mile bagger planned out. I read and saw pics and wondered if you guys knew them. Then I read your bro's post this morning. Crazy shit and glad they are all ok. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We ride where we were all the time but have never gone thru that little trail. At least I know I can go play in there in the spring with the sxs if I want mud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zambroski Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Looks like a beautiful day here with mid teens this afternoon. I heard local club cleaned up my trails last night after a weekend of brutal pounding. I’m sore as fuck from yesterday but, if it’s groomed, might put my sway bar back on and go take a nice Monday spin on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trails are smoooooth today after local club ran them last night. This is the kind of stuff that would make it fun to slide around on a “sit-downer”. It’s fun to ride with a sway bar again! Sadly, I’ve decided against being a bit better dressed. I also just noticed I’ve got a hole in the crotch of my track pants! Wtf? Thank god for my pit coat!

The trails were smoooooth,rode up to Haliburton for lunch,over to Minden then tried a secondary trail back to Haliburton but got turned around by a big water hole. I saved a lot of money by not having to go to a gym lol. I think I used every muscle handling the big couch lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member Skidooski Posted January 20, 2020 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted January 20, 2020 Time for a new sled I think. Currently looking at these heaps. I can only find one XRS locally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
