Restored JDX8
Yes--Very nice--I like the look of the early JDX's with the small windshields. I am also glad to hear you are going to ride it--While I have never done a complete restoration I have refurbished a number of sleds and they get plenty of looks and compliments when they are out on the snow. Makes you fe...

Selling my Liquifire, and moving South!
Good luck to you in your move. This economic thing has probably affected most of us in some way. While I still have my job here in IL--Both my wife and myself have lost all our O.T. and been cut way down in hours available to work at times. I once looked at sleds in the $500-800 range that were usua...

Flooding out!! (In Fargo)
I sure hope everything holds for you guys out there. That is amazing--been watching on TV and the predicted crest keps going up. Not much could be worse than to have that river spill over into town. Hopefully this cold weather will stop any melting and let that River start to retreat.

Race story
Yes , Another great story from a legend in the snowmobiling world. I too couldn't wait for the next issue of SnowWeek to arrive to see all the race results from both Cross Country and Oval Racing.

Snow is coming down
A friend of mine is up in MINOCQUA WI right now for the weekend--Just talked to him tonight--He said there is no riding going on up there except for on the lakes. Looks like a bad weekend for the sledders---My son is in the UP in Marquette--said riding is still good up there--Roads are bare in spots...

Puckered....
Not good for me either--Wife's job was restructured disappeared but she was lucky to get another within the same company --BUT WITH A PAY REDUCTION. My hours have gone from 50+ a week--down to still hanging on at 40. But between the 2 income downward adjustments it has been real tough--2 kids in col...

Snow Cover Map, Is This Accurate?
Probably less snowcover now--But I was in the Michigan U.P. last week and there was an honest 4 ft in the woods. Base on the trails looked to be at least 18 inches. I am going this weekend again. I have put on 1550 miles so far and hope to reach the 2000 mark this coming weekend--Been a great year s...

Deeres are better
I think it is a very unique design and Rumor has it that at least 1 other Manufactuer has a similar design coming forward also. I don't think it is a snocross design--I believe it is designed for trail use--Looks like a great design with kinda a swingarm effect. I really believe most of the new desi...

WTF is wrong with people??
This is an almost unbelievable story--If I was the property owner I would also shut down that trail. Unfortunately the shutting down of trails is happening more and more in MI and WI. Way to many guys running loud sleds and going off trails right next to signs where a property owner places a sign th...

Dator and 340/S
I wasn't really trying to offend anyone with my comments---I am sure the sleds will go to a good home--It is just impossible to say sometimes--what will happen in anyone's future and how that will affect the things they must choose to do in their life. What's that old saying about S___ happens!! I j...

Dator and 340/S
Sorry to hear you have to part with your sleds due to a job issue. I have had to sell some things before due to economic difficulty myself. Everything worked out for me and hope it does for you also. I gotta love the people who want to know "WHAT YOUR INTENT WITH THE SLEDS WAS" Like your t...

Tomahawk WI
Tomahawk trails and snow conditions are not that great now or for that matter most of the time---You are better riding 1 hour north of there into Iron county to get into the Superior snow belt. Manitowish waters/boulder jct/ mercer are all much better trail systems and much more snow. For those who ...
