I've heard that it could be a snowy weekend up in them mountains.

Wish I could have joined all of you.

Everyone have a blast....but PLEASE use your head and don't take unnecessary risks. I want lots of happy/funny stories and plenty of pics, not the the opposite!

[Tunderin' RT]

Just got back. Rode Bell on Friday , went great. Renshaw on Saturday, poor weather, and then again Bell on Sunday with good weather. Great turnout, fantastic banquet, excellent people, great time. We will definitely go again.

 

[HagmanMod1]

just got back home the supper was sweet lots of planing involved in the event will definatly be back next year,snow was good weather not so good all in all was a great weekend nice to meet some of you guys and gals will post some pics tomorow

 

[Quagmire]

I had a great time at the banquet. I met alot of members. Had a good time riding with Thunder Struck Team. I helped Trennis off of the trail and back to the parking lot after he ran out of propane. I was right behind Jim's Nytro as the track came off. That was an interesting trail ride home on saturday.
The Elks royal purple put on a great meal. Thanks

 

[glengine]

The banquet was really good.. I missed the meet & greet as ihad to change out a pto crankseal for a guy on friday night, but it was all good as it meant he got to ride on the saturday.. It was good to meet some new s&m'ers and also seee some i havn't seen in a while.. I'd like to thank all the guys that stopped by our shop this past weekend and checked out the shop as it was a really successful weekend for our shop.. We also had some fun helping trennis try to keep the throttle bodies on his propane apex as they kept seeming to blow off.. Finally we built a heavy-duty bracket to hold airbox to motor.. Then it held for himm.. We really enjoyed having the chance to get to know the guys from thunderstruck as they stopped by the shop each day..

That would be my sled that blew the crank seal after wrapping the belt around the
clutch on Friday. I can't say thanks enough to glen and his whole crew for getting me
back on the trail. we got to Spindrift on Friday evening and by Staurday morning Glen
had it fixed. Anyone who has problems in Mcbride will be very well taken care of by
everyone at Spindrift.
I would like to also thank sledderglen for helping us remove what was left of the belt
on the trail on Friday.
Thanks very much guys, had a blast this weekend and I will be back.

 

[catsandpowgirl]

would also like to say we all had a good time at MM09 and we will definately be back again. Also would like to thank the whole crew at Spindrift for all their help this weekend. Great bunch of people. Look forward to seeing them soon
