They are rebranded as "Scott" today. I dont see many people wearing it though. FXR seems to have the lower priced gear market cornered and the guys who dont mind spending more wear Klim.

I guess if you sit in the basement typing on computer all weekend with the jacket hanging in closet then it will last extra long time. Others actually wear their stuff they buy. Lucky the belt is there to help hold the jacket on hanger. Wouldnt want it to fall of hanger and wrinkle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puzzleboy Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) Yeah...... I wouldn't know. I was out riding this weekend, north of the park. Where did you ride this weekend, SKS? Did the Klan have their annual get together? 4 hours ago, Sksman said: I guess if you sit in the basement typing on computer all weekend with the jacket hanging in closet then it will last extra long time.

Scratchers might be a must. Sounds like snow Wednesday and a small chance for a few days after. It looks to warm up quick overnight and cool acknowledge down to zero by early afternoon tomorrow.

Can someone chime in directly after the freeze up and let us know if scratchers are going to be needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be. Traffic areas should be fine with loose snow. -23 and -27 Thursday and Friday nights will make anything that was groomed rock hard.

Appears to be way to many this year. just what is in the news: "A Niagara-on-the-Lake man is dead after a snowmobile crash in Hastings Highlands. The Bancroft OPP says Glenn Cook was killed when his snowmobile left the trail and hit a tree Sunday afternoon. The 62-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene. Police continue to investigate. This is the second snowmobile death the Bancroft OPP has investigated this winter." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn in Caledon Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Checked into the west way. Rain and fog most of the way up. Misting here now. Double checked the polaris dealer in town has Sliders and scratches in stock. I'll probably be seeing them before the weeks out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puzzleboy Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 The pic says it all. Wait..... don't the Polaris faithful on here claim that a Polaris can hit a tree at 80, and survive essentially unscathed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve6 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) At least the polaris's can get up to 80 without doing this Edited March 8, 2017 by steve6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That crash has nothing to do with having a studded track and most likely from the rider falling off going up down a chute in the mountains.
