Pat's Open House

[garyl62]

Started a role call thread here to catch a little more attention right before the event.

Who's coming and about what time?

 

[garyl62]

Ok John, looks like it's you, me, Kip and Lenny. Hope a bunch of other people come by. It's going to be a great day! The new showroom is looking great and even though there's not enough snow to demo sleds we can still check them out and maybe even take a side by side out. Hope there's a good crowd or else we'll be taking some great turkey home with us to make sandwiches.

Man, you guys are making me so jealous!!!! I'm stuck down in South Carolina and can't make it this year. Gonna miss the turkey!!! Looks like it's gonna be a late start to the season, so I guess it's not so bad being away from home. You all have fun this weekend. Hope to see you after the holidays!

 

[kip]

m8man,

You would be correct, 1995!! Wow, hard to believe that's 20 years ago already.

Sorry you can't make it switch07, we would love to have you. Hopefully we get some snow soon so you can rip those Vipers out

 

[lenny]

Cool stuff

 

[sweeperguy]

Lenny what do you think about that Helo setup? Ez Ryde got that there?

 

[byr 13]

lenny what do you think about the factory race sled ? if it snows can you take it for a spin ??
is kip getting a beer belly ???

Lenny what do you think about that Helo setup? Ez Ryde got that there?

you mean this, looks effective if you put pressure on it and twist it around. We're gonna have a demo with the carve skid but it's gonna be a mtn sled set up. Possible were gonna do the trail version but just a thought for now. It's good stuff!

Yea I saw it at haydays looked like it would add alot to stock suspension but at a fraction of the cost of an entire EZ suspension setup.
Thought he was saying for stock suspension trail use, my understanding was this would be more for the average trail rider that wanted a little more without a complete suspension swap at alot less cost.

 

[garyl62]

Was a fun day! The place looks great, the work benches in the shop were clean enough to eat off of. I know, that turkey tasted great It was fun to see a lot of old friends and make some new ones. Great job Kip and everyone else.

.......We're gonna have a demo with the carve skid but it's gonna be a mtn sled set up.

You mean because of all the mountains over there?

Sorry I didn't look you up to say "Hi".......by time I got done with Trisha and had a bite to eat it was getting really "thick"......plus I had underestimated how long it would take to get there and home.........so I just cut & ran......

 

[lenny]

We sell a respectable amount of mtn sleds and many get ridden right here in the UP. Many riders can benefit from aftermarket upgrades. I assume most would understand the UP gets deep snow and mtn sleds do well in deep snow.
