Sorry I had to that made me laugh! And I think of it everytime I start my sled in the shop. Glad your ok and a good sport. You should win the give away!
Tomorrow we will announce the winner!! K MF guy.. You let me know what you think too.. I have one in particular that sticks in my mind...
Who do you guys think should win?
Going for a night ride and wondering how much gas your sled has in it. Can't see the level in the little sight glass thingy on the side, so pop the cap and use a lighter for light to see if you can see the level in the tank. Then after it bursts into flames, running around like a total retard looking for a fire extinguisher, when all you had to do was close the cap and smother the flames. Still went for a ride after the fact.
When i stop I put my goggles on top of my primary clutch to thaw out. It works really well they never melt just dry out good. TWICE last year I drive away thinking why the hell my sled is making that bad noise! Only to realise that i left my goggles on the clutch. So then i get to ride the rest of the day without them. And not to mention spend more money on a new pair.
Only ridden in the mountains a few times and that was on an old Cat, this is the 2nd day out on my brand new XP.........Got lucky it was only the bumper. I am definitely no Burandt
An the Winner is............... Northern Bear for his awesome Pyromaniac skillz........ dude.. that still makes me laugh reading it. You have won a Freakin awesome set of Valkyrie Gloves!!
Can you PM your mailing addy and size to MF guy.
Thank you to everyone who participated in this thread, I have a sneaky feeling this isn't the end of it. Stay tuned.. I'll have the article out soon in SnoRiders Magazine!!
Shred On Fellow Whoopsie ers!!

Large group of us were playing (1 by 1) on a steep tree patched slope... Me being a novice took a poke and next thing I knew I was above the 3rd bank of trees and had the only track up there.... thinking to myself WOOHOO!!!
Problem was I was too busy looking up and all of a sudden realized there was no decent path down..... said oh chit and picked a line through the first batch of trees, a 2" sapling paid the ultimate price but I made it thru..... chit here comes the next said to myself " hmmm can I fit thru there????" well hell yas little plastic of the skis but the old summit was still making her way down.... Last batch of trees and I'm close enough to the edge that I figure I can get around it all together.....NOT!! tree well sucked me in and upside down.
Still on a very steep incline I was worried about righting the sled for fear it would take off on me so I secured by bungee to the rear shock & the culpret tree, by then doug had arrived to help (on a side note our feerless shiney-top leade,r RKnight, failed on 3 separate attempts to reach me...Bwahahahaha)
So anyways now to the whoopsie....
With the sled righted and held in place by doug it was time to breath life back into the old iron..... I pulled and pulled and pulled and pulled...then doug pulled and pulled and pulled...nuttin....
fawk-it looks like I'm toboganing down, jump on the sled and ride her down, when I get to the bottom I'm now stumped as to why she won't fire, it's not like the old summit to be pizzy like that. pull and pull and on the 3rd pull it hit me.....right in the fawking eye....my DESS key that is.... seems the whole time we were pulling and pulling the DESS was attached to my wrist but not to the sled....
Plugged her in, first pull start.... back to the crowd.... "Wow I must have flooded her good, what a biatch to get started"......
