my season wasnt the greatest, but i cant complain. i got about 500 miles in up near Gaylord area and such. Wish I put on more but hey, I cant complain, my snowmobile didnt break a trailing arm, this is the first season I havent broke one since 1999. Ive replaced over 12 trailing arms, all the left side, except the last once cause i rolled my sled.

I've had a Great season I put on 1800 trouble free miles and about 400 of them was with my friend who finally got a sled(HCR) which was awesome...I still have a month or so to put some more miles on however it is -30c here all week so I probably wont be riding anytime soon.

man i only wish it was -30 here. better than 60 degree weather like we had all last week. it rained non stop from friday night to last night. it was stupid. we have no snow left at all, just some muddy shoes and some fond memories of the 2008-2009 season.

approx 2000 kms for me, then i sunk her today after breaking threw thin ice, and shes still there now, i donno if i'll ever see her again, gunna look in the spring with the boat.
YOu serious! you re just gonna leave it there till spring? I mean, i guess i can understand why, but man that really sucks!
Yeah man, there is nothing i can do, the ice was to thin to pull it up, and i had no rope. It was sad, i sat there for half an hour looking at the hole, i did not want to leave her.

Well it looks like were supposed to get 12-16 inches of snow in the next couple of days, the bad part of it is I have the flu.
Snowdriven- I almost sunk on saturday.. scary sh1t, I can honestly say that I understand why people don't like to use deeper lug tracks for waterskipping.
defiantly the scariest thing that has ever happened to me, one minute im riding, the next i see my hood with smoke pouring out of it, then the next im swimming trying to get out and the ice keeps breaking under me.

Winter is still in full effect here! gonna have another 60 days of riding I predict. Well that is what I am hoping for. Right now and for the next month is the best riding of the season. more day light, warmer temps, and spring like snow. Now the shorties can go about anywhere!
Jealous, very jealous I am
