let my kids ride there kitty cat last sunday in the neighbors yard. I did push/ride it about 10 feet does that count. Good thing nobody had a camera because anyone who has ever met me from here at a show or something can attest to the fact that I am a rather large man and the sight of me trying to ride a kitty cat well lets just say could be rather funny.

Got the Arctic cat jag out for the first time this season TODAY.6-10 inches of new snow and off to the fields. Felt Great to get that first ride in. Working on the Liquifire--hope to have that running soon--and I also have a Trailfire to get going . Soon I will have the first ride of the season on one of those DEERE's. Also have a polaris TXL to get out of storage. Just been waiting for the snow so I hope this stays awhile--weather looks good for the next week so I hope to get them all going and put some miles on them. I think I'm going for 1 last quick ride right now. SEE YA JIM

Got the Trailfire and Liquifire out for one night 3 weeks ago to work the bugs out.1.5" snow and 15 degrees in eastern Nebraska.
We got about 5-6" this week and have been riding all week in the field and around town.The neighbors who laughed at my son and I on a 104 degree day in July when we brought these sleds home from a yard sale are still laughing, but as they ride around town!!
It's starting to melt today, but we found some nice drifts to jump at my dads farm.
More snow PLEASE!!!

I hear that 81SPIT I live in the city with my wife and kids now and all my sleds are in the country at a freinds. Its tuff to get to them other than on the weekends.

I did get to ride today it was great only rode 3 sleds my 300,jdx4 and my zr 580 and only 1 was a real pain in the a!# to get running and it wasnt a deere. I did dig out and brush off 2 rupps my trailfire and an arctic cat lynx. With any luck will get to beat on them tommorow.. This is lucking to be a sweet winter I really cant remember the last season with rideable snow this early in December alot of the time we are stuck waiting into Jan for decent snow.

I took the snowfire out this morning for a short ride..only problem was I couldnt get back up the steep hill in the trail to get back home. I was about 3 miles from home at that point. I tried twice to get a running start up that hill but no go...so I was forced to ride the 12 mile loop around that mountain and it was great!! Virgin snow about 8 inches deep... made for an outstanding early season ride..... I had a blast!!!!!!
