<font color="ff0000">Hung out with zrt4me awhile tonight while he was stopped at the Flying J for the night. Talked some sledding and watched Slednecks 12. Sure gonna miss him on the mountain this season! Might have to send him some picture messages while we are out there, would that be mean?</font>

How is Carlton doing? I have his beacon still. I'll be using it Jan. 10th to the 16th unless he requests it back. FYI. My beacon/probe is all for you guys if needed and I'm not out west.

 

[nitroman]

<font color="ff0000">He's doing well and really enjoying his new job. Doesn't look like he will get much if any ride time this year though! 6 days a week on the road now but he get's vacation next year. I stocked him up on sled mag's to get his fix and told him we would take the video cam along. Same goes for me if you need an extra beacon and probe let me know! We will be in Colorado Jan 9th-14th where you gonna be?</font>

 

[cuzzinolaf]

Ahhhh, you guys going to try a bunch of places in Colorado? I think I remember Carlton saying thats what you guys were doing. We'll be in Togwotee this time. I am not sure how many trips west I'll get this year.

 

[nitroman]

<font color="ff0000">We were but now it's just Steamboat Lake area and Rabitt Ears Pass. Our group went from 4 to 11 as it usually does so the logistics got to be more difficult for that type of trip. Looks like 2 trips for sure maybe a 3rd in march depending on the work schedule. Got some new sleds in the group more are stepping up to mountain sleds only 1 crossfire left in the group and we are working him pretty hard(he can afford it!)so we will see. Got the itch pretty bad I need to stop watching all those sled vid's</font>

<font color="119911">You can hang onto the beacon Cuzz and send it to nitroman if his group needs it whenever.
The new job is going good. Starting to settle into the truck driving thing. It is stressfull at times but overall I dig it.
I am seeing more and more pick ups out there pulling sled trailers and it just makes me jealous!

I am still keeping your offer for the place in the U.P. in mind cuzz. That may be my only chance to ride this year?</font>

 

[cuzzinolaf]

My friend Jay started driving around the same time you did. He has called me from Wyoming, Montana, Utah, and all over just to say he can see snow on the mountain tops. Let me know when you're thinking of coming up and we'll figure it out. You're always welcomed.

Nitroman- when are you going to SLO? We have reservations for Feb 20th -27th. We have a guide for 3 days and will be tracking with my 76cxs. If you go after we go i can share may maps if you want. Or if you go out first, please give me an update. Thanks,

 

[nitroman]

<font color="ff0000">Will do fireworks. We are leaving Jan 8th. I bring the gps along to find my way home but I will try and mark the good spots we find!</font>

 

[nitroman]

<font color="ff0000">Well the White Knuckle Motorsprts crew has some new iron this year:
1 traded up to a 2010 M8 SnoPro
1 traded up to a 2010 HCR
and the last traded up to a 2007 M100 SnoPro
Just 2 Crossfires left in the group and one is looking to trade up to a M8 SnoPro so it should be a good season. If only we could skip December and go straight to January!</font>

 

[M4me]

Come on nitroman,,,any more details on the upcoming trip? Wish I could go.
I got the new seat mounted anyway and I think it will work great. I ordered the "Gas Can Thingy" to mount on the tunnel now that I have a lot more room with the new seat. No more being stranded without gas for me!!

 

[nitroman]

zrt4me check out the western riding board for pics from the Colorado trip it was all good except for the fact you wuddn't there! Next year though I will keep a trip open even if it's a quick weekender.


The largest thread on JD ride board can't die!

Pics look good nitro. How did the 2010's run? Curious if either noticed they were a little funky in the low rpm range?--like 4800-5200 or so, when your just put-putting through a spure trail or something. Kinda like your loosing a plug, but runs fine everywhere else throughout the powerband.
