Just got a polaris 550 a while ago. Love riding it. Didn't think i would like skidooing, but have to admit it is quite a rush. Still learning how to make the corners, just about hit a tree. :eek:

Sometimes I go little too fast and the sled does get away from me, but man what a blast. I could just ride for ever. That is until my feet get cold.

Hey G. Were you able to get your sled (Skidoo) fixed. Hope you were able to go out on Sunday. Just sitting here watching it snow. We went to Westlock on Saturday. Was beautiful. Went a long way. Met some people from Spruce Grove, but don't remember their names. They were lost out there, were on their second round of the north loop. Glad we had maps. Were able to show them the way out.

I agree it is the best winter sport. I have never been so glad to see it still snowing in March.
