I haven't seen this done before, soooo, Let's hear the story behind your avatar!! Why you chose the pic. What was happening, and where Or just a general description of it (if it's your sled or a pic. of something) I would especially like to hear from some of the off-the-wall ones!! ie..Quinlan, SRX600...where the he!! did you find those??? My first one was just the best pic. I had at the time...my second is about half way through a custom paint job. Thought this might be cool to hear some of the stories and get a little inside look. Let's hear 'em!!!

I was just bored while i was layed off and decided to put a little extra effort into my avatar. I just put my 3 toys that go together. My sled, my quad, and my truck. Had to put the truck in there because thats the 4 season hauler. Rain or snow that thing has some kind of off road toy in it haha.
<edit> I was thinking of signature!! Woops theres the story behind my sig haha. There really is no story behind my avatar, i just put my favorite picture up of the current riding reason(winter pic of sled, summer pic of quad)

My avatar is off the wall? I was not aware. Ha.
Years ago I took a liking to deathly things...the Grim Reaper, Skulls, and things of the like. Part of my dark side I guess. Part of the reasoning behind my title of "Lurker of the Shadows." The skull in my avatar has the appearance of watching you, which kind of fits into my title, and also works in the fact that I'm a moderator.
During the winter I usually have a snowmobile related avatar. I like to change it up in the off-season though.

A mountain lion roaming the prairie found a bull, killed it and ate the entire bull. With a heavy belly, unable to walk, the lion laid in the tall grass moaning and roaring. Soon a hunter, attracted by the roaring, shot and killed the lion.
Moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut!

I can see where mine would be considered off the wall haha. I got mine from the band Coheed and Cambria way back when. I to like to use snowmobile ones in the winter and switch it up a bit during the warmer months.

Mine is just the old 440 the day I bought it, hmmm maybe I should change it..
Owning a race sled is like having a totally hot girlfriend..... All of your friends want to see it, feel it and check it out..... They all want to know what it is like to ride it, but if they only knew how much time and money it takes to keep one up, they would call you a fool!

Cuz it's baller.
I'm snowmobiling. In NH.
Haha, we were up for a trip and we got 13" of snow overnight and into the morning. We went out and I was taking powder in the face and chest all day. My g/f had her cam and snapped a picture of me headin towards her. We were on the lake and I was attempting carving and stuff and just messing around for an hour or so.

First time I seen yours, I thought "man that's effed up!!" But pretty cool!! I was having a brain fart when I put off-the-wall.

Mine is of what I've sunk my money into. All the late nights, all the money spent, time spent. My IQR, my anti-drug. Who knows what I would blow money on if I didn't have a sled I dropped money into every year.
