Todd Palin is installing a set used front shocks from 2012 he bought from Toutuk the native in some shit hole village. Walker sled shocks have always been garbage. They don't hold up to the average poo owner who spends most of the time "riding" sitting on a bar stool 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, not much for aerial drone footage of different stages of the race which is what I would like to see. Also very little remote wilderness vids from say, a helo or a plane. More of that would be cool. If you know where all the vids are post them up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK440 Posted February 24, 2023 Author Share Posted February 24, 2023 Nail biting suspense! The entire race is sitting in the shithole village of Galena. Why? Because the checkpoint doesn’t have enough gas. Sounds like someone stole some fuel drums so…. waiting for more gas to be hauled in from a different stink hole village. Bang up operation! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaska Safe Riders generously donates hundreds of helmets each year to the kids in the villages and its worthwhile to highlight such a great organization.

AK440 Posted February 25, 2023 Author Share Posted February 25, 2023 The finish is today. I’m sure it’ll be the same exact lineup it has been since the start. Ski-doo will be first followed by the same two Polaris teams. It’s been boring as fuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking Maytrx can’t hold together, total piece of shit. One guy quit cause he blew his back out from the rear skid falling apart on a Maytrx. It’s gotta be hard to come out with a better skid design than the 13 year old R-motion. Polaris with what 7 of the top 10 spots and a solid second place.
