    Expensive Holiday

    Spent the last week in Cadomin camping and quadding. Cadomin took it's pound of flesh out of our group. For the quads, we wrecked 2 belts, one axle, one frame, one plastic crack. One machine got speared like it was in a joust. Of the three 5vers, we suffered 3 blow outs on the way home. I blew...

    V 10's

    Still one of the best looking truck body styles IMHO.

    V 10's

    I used to own a '99 2500. Loved that truck. Torque like crazy, but it it was only a 2wd. A friend worked at a Chrysler dealership. Asked his opinion about it before we bought it. We still laugh about his reply...... "It'll pass anything on the highway....except a gas station! Great motors, just...

    show us your bike !

    Took this in front of Bow Lake this weekend. My C109RT. Tried to twin a pic of my c50 from last year, same spot. Too bad for the smoke. My BIL just picked up his new ride. He wanted bigger power and found exactly what he wanted. Does this look familiar to anyone here???? It belonged to a...

    Teach me the way of the fifth wheel

    Personally i've never been a fan of units with slides on both sides, but i do see the interior space appeal in longer term semi permanent set ups. Check the slide top seals. With slides on both sides you can't put a gentle slope to aid moving water away from the trailer. Maybe set it up a bit...

    What did you do for your ATV today?

    The 500 was overheating bad on the weekend. Don't know exactly why, started all of a sudden. Lots of coolant, but not circulating like it should. Tested the thermostat, its reacting inconsistently, so we wired the thermostat open, helped a bit. Engine is working harder than it should , so going...

    Burning Fuel....Smashing Bugs!!

    All in we ended up with 710km over 2 days. We saw some great new roads around that area. I wish there was a hwy that just zig zagged back and forth across the RDR. Stunning every time.

    Burning Fuel....Smashing Bugs!!

    It was a great start to the day, but hit rain near Three Hills. All part of the experience. Pulled over and geared up. Crossed the RDR on the Bleroit Ferry. Nobody had been on an alberta ferry before [emoji15] Then off to Wayne for lunch. Great place, first time there. Will be back.

    Crap Korean Chinese tires

    I was told not to put truck tires on our 5th wheel. Reason was something like truck tires have stiffer side walls, and the tread patterns are also for lateral stability. When a tandem axle trailer is turning, if the sidewalls are not flexing and the tires are not 'sliding', that torque is...

    Burning Fuel....Smashing Bugs!!

    Last Saturday, got my kid all suited up with a new helmet and chaps. Put around 100km on the Virago getting ready for a road trip this weekend. Decided I'll let him ride the C50 instead, lending the Virago to my nephew, and all 5 of us will be smashing bugs all the way to Drumheller! Sunday, he...

    Single Axle Flip

    Another vote for Alberta Spring. I bought a new axle for my sled trailer from them. A 3500lb axle with all the trimmings was around $300.00 if i remember right?

    Another trip to Hay River in the books. Saw 3 blackies going up, 4 coming home. The falls were an awesome site as usual. According to the locals, the lake is still mostly ice, some visible from shore.

    Saw this young feller on hwy 35 about 30km north of high level. He was not appreciative of the interruption and bluff charged my truck! First time that has ever happened to me!
