Newbe from Sweden

[Iron Miner]

Hallo everybody! Post nr 1. Middle age guy from Sweden’s north most town. Me and my family are crazy about snowmobiles and dirt bikes. My family breaths sweat and bleeds snowmobiling.

Been driving since 1976 first sled was Ski doo Olympic 340E 1976 Many many sleds later I ride a Skidoo Renegade 600 bc x 2012 and a Yamaha MP 2010.

Thanks!

The language is an obstacle to participate I debates and so on. But I’ll try to post my experience from the sleds I ride. Problems or simply the quality of my sleds.

We use our sleds for traveling to remote char lakes and for fun. I will post pics and try to tell you about our riding over here. The area where we live is 68 degrees north so season is looong. From Oct to June. Most riding is above the three line.
