Full leather chaps and jacket for me, chaps and synthetic jacket with padding for hubby. Boots and gloves both of us. We wear this at all times no matter how hot it is. Makes it uncomfortable at times but better than riding without, might as well be naked.
For all the miles that we do on the trails, we have encountered maybe a handful of Arctic Cat ATV's since we started serious quadding in 2004. Now that is roughly 1500 kms a year x 10 years, tells you something doesn't it. Most brands we see are the Yamaha's, Can-Ams, Honda's and Polaris. We are...
I would suggest to stay away from a used Polaris 850. We had one for just about a year. Stock, we take very good care of our machines, regular maintenance, pretty easy miles, but long miles. Hubby loved the ride and handling but HATED that it was falling apart so quickly., don' t remember the...

So we bought a used Raptor Toyhauler last fall, great unit. Last weekend while out camping there was a short but nasty thunderstorm so we sat inside and turned on the t.v and stereo system to watch Wild Hogs movie to wait the storm out. After it was done our friends asked why we had the outside...
Glad you had a great time. We camped with our bike and a few friends at Preacher's point on the west end of Abraham Lake. We rode to Lake Louise the first day and the second day we rode to Columbia Icefields( not the best day weather wise) because we would have gone all the way to Jasper and...
