Wait until you are 53. In my 30's going over the handlebars or getting chucked off the sled and going for a tumble wasn't a big deal. In my 50's it's hit and miss if I am ever going to recover from it. :stretcher:
This seems to be an issue that is popping up all over the place lately; not an issue a guy expects to deal with on a new sled. When they are charging us over $2.00/L for premium "Bad Fuel" should not be an issue that we need to worry about either. :tearhairout:
The biggest issue isn't the extra 10 hp; it's the rest of the equation. You can find out and compare spring rates and gearing. But the big factor is that nobody will tell you what angles are in any kind of custom cut helix. If you have a 150/350 primary; with the stock pivot/ramp set up; and the...
That's what I always think when I watch any of the talented young fellas making it look so easy. Every re-entry I have ever done was due to not turning out in time and gravity taking over from there. Combine that with being too stupid to let go of my sled for the fear of it ghost riding to it's...
Lol……that’s one positive way of looking at it. But when you come home from work limping from just being on your knees changing soaker pads in compressors and need to get out of your truck slowly to make sure they are ready to go. I don’t think bow ties and hopovers on days off are the best way...
A little ski lift is kinda sporty and cool. But I have had to rescue my 22 year old son from under his '20 Expert after it came over backwards and pinned him underneath it in it's trench; and all he could do was talk to me on his radio because his leg was pinned, and there was nothing he could...
Honestly I think they are all amazing riders. But I prefer watching Matt ride with his dad and different people. This year throwing in the random beacon searches is a great idea. Caleb just seems to never actually go anywhere in his videos. It's a tiny section of a hill with 25 bowties. I guess...
It’s quite interesting to read all the different ways different riders use a wide range of components to get to what each individual finds to be “their” best set up.
Lol……not saying that I ride well anymore at all. The older I have gotten I just don’t even risk going in the trees. If guys head in I just try to find a nice spot in less challenging terrain and hang out there. I tell the fellas that when you are in your 50’s and getting cortisone shots in both...
