I’m at Jackfish Lake but I live in Calgary. We only spend the summer out there.
Thanks for the info, I suspect we will just stick with Stanger then as I don’t like riding in potentially “sketchy” areas. I’m used to MacLean Creek near our house. Anything else we need to know about the area? We...
Thanks so much for the reply, I really appreciate it!! Do we have to be part of the ATV club to ride there? I read somewhere it was basically Mandan it it was the same article that said there were 25km speed limits.
As for the trails east of AB beach, are they worth it or should we just go to...
I've been trying to find a place for my 10 year old son and I to go riding (dirt bike and side by side) while at our summer lake cabin but am having trouble finding an area near Carvel (closer to us) or Alberta Beach. I've been able to find a little information for a place called Stanger...
I would say, while I want to maintain the ability to ride flat land with the family, most of my riding would be in the trees out in the mountains.
As for price, I don’t really have a budget in mind. I am fully open to new and used. If I am paying 8,000 for a used machine but could get a new...
I would be with the wife and kid but that would be limited to cruising down a logging road or groomed path for a hot dog roast....nothing fast or “unsafe” as she puts it when referring to how I ride
Anything else would be strictly by myself outside of an emergency.
To be honest, I’ve not ruled out any manufacturer with the exception of the fact I like Can-Am. I’ve had one of their quads and currently own a SxS and two Seadoo’s all made by Bombardier but am not sure how they translate to the sled world.
As for the track, I am still not too sure about what...
Thanks for the replies so far, I did respond but it appears it did not post properly.....
Being from Alberta, I guess I would say Mountain with family and buddies mixed in. I have absolutely no interest in high marking but do ride COMPLETELY different when with buddies as I do with the wife and...
Forgive me if this has already been posted but I tried to search several combinations of “buying a new sled” but did not find anything....
I am considering purchasing my first skidoo and was hoping some of you would be willing to help me out with not only what to look for but what I...
Hey Mike, I know this is an old post but I just wanted to pass on a BIG thanks for posting this map. Most people don't realize how much we rely on these types of posts with geographical locations in back country areas. I work at STARS Air Ambulance and recently took an emergency request for a...
I lost my dad last year but I too am a dad. My 5 yr old (with the help of his grandpa....wife's side) made me a sign out of a cedar plank that says "best buddy" on it that was done with a router. If that was not cool enough my wife took the plank from my dads basement workshop last year when we...
Thanks guys.....I'm going to call BRP Canada first to see if they will fix it under warranty but, if they won't cover it, I'm trying to come up with ideas on what I'm going to do. Does anyone know if they make an aftermarket metal version of the bracket....it blows my mind that they use plastic...
Ok, so I was taking another look at the zerk now that I had a few more moments to myself and noticed that it is actually mounted completely on top of and inside of a plastic square bracket type setup attached to the sway bar!!!! I think if I just remove the one large bolt and drop the shackle to...
Due to where it's located it would be very hard to tap it to the next size as that was my first thought but I may have to end up doing that.
I've never heard of a pound in zerk but that's almost what I have now lol!!!!!
As for tacking it on....do you think it might wreck it or will it be easy...
