I carry tools and a tow rope!! And bring a shop on wheels with me!! I don't think it really maters how old or how much prep you do, anybody can break anything!
If you didn't break somethin you didn't ride hard enough!

I'm in this year. Hopefully I won't spend the whole freaking weekend in the hotel parking lot trying to re-build my motor and carbs to get the thing running. So far she starts and idles, but it is still high 80's low 90's here. Hard to tune for cold weather like that.

Have been fixing my old one. Looking at possibly getting a 2000 Arctic Cat ZR600 EFI. Local shop has it for about $2000.

The reason im the last person is because I have to keep stopping and picking up parts that keep falling off everybody elses sled. This year im pulling a sleigh behind me so I dont run out of room.

Just a suggestion from one of us frequently snowless central Wiscon types... Put a time and location in on the first page.

My wife lets me off the leash sometimes if I plan far enough ahead. I've got few friends that would enjoy coming along too.

Thanks,
Bill

What are we waiting for to set the date? I would suggest on rotating between 3 areas to keep the diversity so that way most everyones favorite place will be rode every 3 years and we are not relagated to one area. Any ones thaughts.
