Are they wearing turbines ?

It actually would be great to see new Canadians (or more likely their 1st generation kids) take up snowmobiling.  Could only help the sport in the long run.

He'll be fine in the cold, as long as you don't put one of those racer fanboi MX helmets on him.....

 

 

I don't think we'll take him out in -22 for a daytime high. I'd be picking the full face helmet for that day.

Merry Christmas ya filthy animal. :bc:

That's awesome...My boys 8 & 10 are going to find this picture of their first sled under the tree. She's been hiding in the locked trailer at the cottage :)

Get ready for lots of arguments whose turn it is to drive it! Also, just in case you don't know, those little suckers can reach 60 mph give or take.

I was in the D7 booth at the snowmobile show a couple of years ago. A family stopped by. They had just immigrated to Canada from Mexico. They had just bought a two up sled and were shopping for the gear to go with it. Dad said he wanted his kids to enjoy life in Canada and all the fun things that were available to them. If they found it as much fun as they were sure it would be they would be getting a second two up sled.

If you manage to get out with Reevy, you will likely beat last years total miles on just that single ride, he likes to ride....might be a banner year for you :pc:  

Make sure that Doo  is tuned and ready to go....

What reports are you hearing about Simcoe?

It is looking promising though that Simcoe should be good this year, been a few years for that.

That is awesome!

How old is the boy again, just over 2 isn't he?  Last year my boy was just over 2.5 years for his first ride with dad and he loved it!

Wanted to ice over but it blew apart yesterday and I just came inside and I could hear the waves. With the cold and a calm few days it will happen. Cooks bay is iced over.

Really was a nice night with the snow. Got about 4". Lots to work with now and trails opening every day more local. Can't ask for more. 

I'll be heading out all week hopefully.

Merry Christmas.

have not far off a foot here.  maybe 6-7" last night 

I'm going to have to check my snow stick back at the Shelter on B Trail when I pack my trails later today, but I figure that we have close to 2 feet of snow now after the squalls last night.

We put my son's Z120 on the deck on Christmas eve when he was 4. After he thought all the presents were opened, we asked him to let the cat in. He literally did an involuntary head butt into the glass door when he looked out ! Boy has not been right since:) Thankfully there was snow because half hour later he was out doing laps around the back field.

Now at 14, he still has the bug. He has burnt tow tanks of gas this week and I haven't made it out of the yard yet.
