sticknstring Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 No kidding... I love it. I took mine to work this morning and I was the first on many of the trails... untouched powder! I even got stuck once pounding some drifts. It's supposed to hit 40's mid next week so enjoy it while you can, could be the last good ride of the year around here.

knoppers Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 the ditches were great this afternoon, the drifts were still soft. the sun sure has lots of power this time of year, only 8 degrees, and the snow was melting off the driveway very fast.

fishersofmen Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Isn't hardly worth owning a sled anymore unless you take trips. The most we can count on now is two decent months out of twelve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler23 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 yea but for those 2 months i look forward to them all year. and thats what makes it more fun. no different than hunting you only get a month or 2 for hunting ducks but i still love it.

fishersofmen Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Yea me too, but you can duck hunt for a couple hundred dollars. I here you though sledding is my passion, just wish we had more time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler23 Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 lol not when im duck hunting boats, blinds, mudmotor, decoys. i burn alot of money in that sport also. but hunting ducks and along with a couple other things are my only passions so i dont really care. its what i live to do every year.

HNTNBUX Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 I hope you are kidding. I am with Tyler on this one. Duck hunting for me is far more expensive than snowmobiling. Sure they both can be done for less, such as a 1972 Ski Doo 440 or standing on shore with a Remington 870. Either way I probobly would not do either one. If I am going to take the time to do something I am going to hit it hard. Heres to the overtime to pay for all of it. Bring on the snow and the ducks.

kdawg Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 After a 13 year hiatus from sleddin, I finally got back into it this year. I've been on 5 rides, all of them by myself which isn't my fav. way to ride, if given a choice and I can't believe how much FREAKIN FUN I've had this year. Normally I like the snow during winter cuz it gives the kids something to do and it looks "purdy", but now I LOVE WINTER. I'm goin on a trip this coming weekend, up north, with my bro-in-law which will probably cap-off my season... but man, what a great winter it's been!!! And yes, here's to all that overtime to pay for sleddin!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoxMN Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I got my friends 11 YO kid out on the lake on my 88 indy 400, and he ran a tank of gas through it! He had a blast. The lake looked like a hiway when he was done! It was great. We took his daughter for rides and pulled the shacks out to catch some sunnies, and after they left me and wifey took a nice trail ride today before coming home. The sleds have been a blast this winter, hope we have a few more rides before it melts away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
