I checked the trip odo on the wife’s sled before I got it out for the year. I reset it after the last time she rode it. Three years ago. 7 miles on it since. And that was all from me riding it around the yard and down the road and back for the past two years. We took her sled with us a month ago, when we went up north but there just wasn’t enough snow to ride yet. Hoping to get her on it next weekend.

That’s how I grew up. As long as there was snow on the ground, and money in my piggy bank to pay for the fuel, my sled only shut off when I slept.

racinfarmer Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 It is like -20°F this morning. A year or two ago, I wouldn't have thought twice about gearing up and heading out for the day. This year, I'll sit at the kitchen island and watch the world go by in this weather. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Shifty Posted February 14, 2021 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted February 14, 2021 Great weekend of riding.160 diamonds pounded yesterday and almost a hundred more today. Perfect conditions and cold af. Which helped keep traffic down. Rode from nash stream Saturday then from home today. The back up sled performed flawlessly. I remember why I rode it for 10 yrs lol 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its ok as long as you dont have a room that joins the pool area. i stayed there a few years back right after they replaced the pool liner, the guy had put SO much chlorine in the damn thing it was gross, breathing that night was brutal!

Loving it more every time I ride it...the trails were a little choppy yesterday and considering it has an uncoupled skid she did well and off trail it’s a blast. I have all the shocks and rear springs set in the middle and I think I can soften up the rears a little which is way different than 14 SBA which was mushy no matter what. Also the 850 rips...really glad I didn’t opt for a 650 which I was really close to doing. 🇺🇸 Thanks for asking!✌🏻 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
