I joined a little while ago but never saw this section until today!! I grew up in the prairies (Lloydminster and areas) with my first taste of 2-stroke smoke at 1 year old. My first sled was a '79 Jag 250 free air, while my dad had an Indy 650. I graduated from the Jag and ditch bangin' to the mountains (Revelstoke and Hunter's Range) with an Indy 500 SKS (94), then '95 XLT SKS which was fairly modded (the latter two sleds were purchased from my dad), now I'm riding an '02 800 RMK VE. My favorite sled was the XLT - Bar none!

So here I am in Lethbridge, having just started my own business, married with a toddler. So sleddin' doesn't happen as often as my thumb would like. My parents own a property in Sicamous, BC - so the area I ride most now is Owl's Head and Blue Lake areas with my dad and uncle.

But I'd like to know if there are other sledheads around Lethbridge area. I've seen a few rigs around town now and then, but not as many as Calgary or Lloyd/Provost/Wainwright areas.

Anyway, hope to have some fun and participate in the threads here now and then, and If I can find my XLT pics (and others) I'll post them eventually.

Cheers'
