What's the first sled you ever rode?

Just wondering what the first sled you rode was? Mine was a 2000 xc 700.

1971 Ski-doo Elan in 1972. What a rush. Dang, that thing was fast! Well... kind of. Ok, ok.. so it was slow. But it was easy to get unstuck, just pick it up and move it to better snow!

First one I rode on was a 1974 Johnson in 1974, I was 4. First one I drove was either the Johnson or my dads 1976 Artic-Cat Eltigre! That was 1980 or 1981. When Started driving, I had the Johnson and my dad had the Cat. Oh we had A Kitty cat also I think its a 76. Sitting in my garage right now. Still in good condition too

My first ride was a free air 1972 Polaris SS Colt 340 in 1989. Hey, it got me in to snowmobiling! That thing was a tank and would go through almost anything but deep powder.

1972 Polaris colt 250! Probably when I was around 10 years old in 2004! My grandpa gave it to me and man did I beat that thing hard through the years! Lol
