They're a handful though. Spaghetti arms need not attempt! I had them on my Freeride a couple years ago. It was like cheating with those things. On groomed hardpack though it was a workout for sure.

Angry ginger 6,787 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Good ride today with the boy. Thin but overall can't complain. One overheat issue when we had to run some pavement to get to gas. 600 etec is sipping fuel and oil. My 09 600 never did as well as this one is doing. 1/3 better than my 800 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Original Lummox 229 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Monday solo 115 klick ride Hecla Resort to Riverton up toWashow Bay then to Grindstone and back Hecla, then I took the west and north shoreline instead of the trail Once again fantastic trails for a Monday Found this on the South shore just east of the trail heading across to Riverton, thought it was weird looking driftwood that caught my eye but as I got closer it was a dead buck, too bad you need a tag in Manitoba to keep it,as it was a nice little rack back on the land Sandy Bay warm up shack FRESH groomed trail north of Riverton, had to get octane booster as Riverton only has regular gas found some decent snow to play in just off the river in a swamp fresh pressure crack south shore of Washow Bay just before Grindstone had go a few hundred yards south to find a decent crossing Grindstone trails fantastic for a monday Grindstone warm up shack shouth shore Grindstone West side of Hecla Island shoreline riding back at Resort 115k 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I thought you were out of the sport for a while due to a motorcycle accident? Hoping to get up 2 more times this year, but with the way the weather has been, more than likely 1, not 2. Never know whats gonna happen in March tho. Could be 3-4 more trips Supposed to be a system coming in next week up there, but we'll just have to wait and see. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I mostly gave it up due to work schedule, and young kids. Theres plenty of snow in the woods N of 28, Tuesday’s weather made it rough around town but I’m sure it’s still good enough to go.

I'm still working on a few who got out when the economy took a dump. One ride would be all it would take for a couple to get back into it.
