Not Sure
Hes probably the one making the shopping list.
Think your on to something there, seems way too many stolen to not believe it is an organized operation with inside information about security etc.

After so much of this you would think the RC's could do something....

Sledders dump hundreds of thousand of dollars into the Revelstoke economy. You'd think the hotels/motels and associated businesses would hire security guards to protect those that help to keep their doors open.

Strange to cause you don't hear about this as much in Golden, can't tell me that the super 8, Best Western or Golden Rim parking lots Arean't a jack pot of sled trailers full of sleds... Something different about Revy...

You would think the cops would pull over anyone who is pulling a sled and trailer at 3 am. I would think it is a little suspicious, especially when they are leaving at that time of the day... arriving, it's a different story.

I think it's time for a bait sled/trailer setup

They do.

Last year we got stoped and checked at midnight going through.

Just checked the vins on the sleds and insurance ect.

And some of those sleds recovered from Boulder were never claimed because they were stolen........
Revy is famous for sleds being ripped off.
Not true. That was a bad rumor that many were already hot. They were all legit

start asking the motel management what is there security measures before booking rooms, they'll start getting the message.

I don't think they care about us they have the skiers to keep the motels full. Stayed at the super 8 only counted 7 units the rest were cars and suvs.

I have to wonder if it was volkswagens and subarus being targeted for theft, would there be more action taken by local businesses and police?

I bet there would be more action. When i told the guy at the front desk what just happened to my truck you could tell he just didn't care. Mind you he just works there to collect a check so what does he care.

Holy Revy bash down! Don't come. Our town will survive. Go to Golden it is awesome. All the money red plates spend on their jacked up short boxes you think you could come up with some better security on your own, sure like the guys who put the baby monitors in their trailers, master shut offs, Alarms etc. The thieves come here not golden cause we are close to the major centres, Golden is like on an Island, couple hours each way to go hide. A few simple steps will ensure you take your stuff home. Should the cops worry about your stuff and patrol parking lots? You have to be kidding. They are busy writing HID and speeding tickets.......... Stop some of that bs maybe they would have more time. Who buys all this stolen stuff?

true, i see this as a universal problem, motels/hotels should be concerned with there guest security big time, i like to phone and ask before i go, and will stay where they have some security. it is a universal problem in high transient areas and golden is not immune.

We could be talking to one of the guys involved right here how would we know?

what that mean? could be all sorts of creeps on here, your point? think those losers troll here? not likley, Na, they troll for unsecured loot. Problem with more security at hotels is the cost, they will pass it on and everyone wants a deal?? Good thing so many guys Have to list everything they own and how cool they are, maybe guys look at that?

Ya that's true. They put up pics and descriptions of their trucks, trailers, and sleds. If you think about it, it's easy to target those people.

However, the security cost is minimal. A few security cameras, along with hard drives, is not that expensive.

Wow u have a issue with red plates, With ppl posting there opinion, Sounds like your one of the guys in revy who don't want outsiders there. This is suppose to be a friendly site for info, connections so everyone can ride safer. Not for ppl to make coments about ppl who are from other places, You sound like u have a chip on your shoulder. Maybe keep it too yourself and let ppl try to help ea other and maybe catch those a hole who are stealing what alot of us worked hard for. Maybe u don't need our money but alot of bussiness in Revy do like our money.
That's the last I have to say on this subject.
