As I said before. Glen is no longer wrenching on machines in mcbride. We talk all the time. He is working at the terrecana resort now.
I don't see how a guy like Glen could quit pulling wrenches all together. A couple beers in the evening and a comealong and I'm sure he'd help straighten my sled out....again. Lol

He might do some stuff on the side not sure. I know if I ever have an issue he is a great guy and a phone call away.

I was under the impression that Glenn owned Spine Drift minus the rental portion. Was this the not the case?

No, Glenn was not the owner. Stuff is in the works to have someone doing at least the more minor repairs like A-Arms and things. More to follow. Should know more in time for the sled show.

Glens father in law I believe was the owner but I do not know who is going to take his place
