So buddy and I trailer out to Drumheller to go sledding on the Red Deer river with my nephew...
Here's how the day went..
Show up, unload and gear up...
Nephew takes his 800 Doo, I have my 600 Poo....and my buddy has 550 Poo
Get about 20kms down the river and the Doo seizes up....looks like both carb boots split and runs to lean...get it unsiezed but it's going no where..
550 Poo pulls him back to the house and nephew grabs his really nice Artic Cat side by side..
Get about 40kms down the river and notice the 550 poo is not with us so I cruise back and see him with his hood up.
pull the plugs and notice the plug on one side is mashed together...looks to me like rings...
Machine not siezed but won't run...(appears to be running only on one cylinder)
Meanwhile Side by side is heading back to us and gets about 1km away and blows a belt.

so....600 poo goes and see's what going on picks him up and we pull the 550 poo back to the house.

THEN....we grab another 550 fan cooled and head down to get the side by side...
hooked both poo's up to the cat side by side and pull it back to a place where we can trailer it up.

Sooo....here's the count.

Poo pulls doo
poo pulls poo
poo and poo pulls artic cat...
600 poo still running like a champ


Day is done...

Hahahaha!!! Sounds like a productive day!

overall...we all laughed alot so it was fun in a weird way...
good news was we were NOT back in the boonies....all break downs were in the middle of the river and therefore recovery was fairly easy.
