43.4

the first trip out for the season on my birthday (12/30) I put on about 4 miles, and got rained out, literally.

I drove the sled to work twice in the past two weeks and put on about 40 more miles. It's pathetic, we only had about two weeks this season where there was just barely enough snow to ride around town, and it got beat on pretty quick by a couple of sled events in town over the weekends.

This was a far cry from last season where there was rideable snow from just after Thanksgiving through mid-March.

60 on the new sled. Mostly running around a lake and one local ditch running day. Have to find out if there's warranty issues. grin.gif

225 miles on the other. One trip to LOW, driving around the lake because I was desperate, and last weekend 85 miles SW of the cities. Hit the MN river bottoms in the mix too and the riding was good!

I hope we get some snow out of this alleged storm this weekend....

The wife and I have both put on 845 miles this year. All but 20 of the miles have been in Michigan. Just came back from the Ontanogan/Gogabic area on Monday. Great snow conditions out there. With the warm weather they are getting this week the trails are probably getting bad now.

If you go to the UP stay to the north. The further south you go the less snow there is. From Calumet to Gogabic the trails were great for us. Down in the Watersmeet area the trails were getting a little thin. Lots of riders out there. Our best riding was in the morning before the trails were rode all day. The groomers were going around the clock to keep up. I am going to try to go to Hurley one more time this year.

Pray for snow this weekend. It would be nice to ride at home for a day. cool.gif

I have you all beat and I can't believe it!!!! 0.0 miles this year. Yes, it's true- I haven't even taken the cover off of my 2004 F6 Firecat once!! It will not be leaving the garage this winter no matter how much snow we get-it's too late now.

75 so far, and that may be it since my pipe blew a hole in it, and the new pipe will not be in till the middle of march. I have never riden less than 800 miles a year. frown.gif

with this big snowstorm coming in now, it hurts that much more.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
