Every time you open the Weather network app or Environment Canada, there is some sort of red banner with a "Special weather warning" and all we get is some light rain or snow.
Someone told me not too long ago that is the government pushing the climate change agenda....
This was a cold morning. So cold the coolant in my sled turned into a slushy.
Awesome ride. Can’t believe it was 10 years ago.
Pretty sure this was Doonuts first ride on his new Swichback.
We basically do the same trip. Leave from home (Gravenhurst) and head to Spectacle lake lodge - This is the longest day.
Then to Petawawa- Quality inn as well.
Then to Mattawa Golf and CC
Then to Kearney and back home the next morning.
We normally have a big crew with us so 5 days works good. Last time we did it we had 14 of us! The 5 days is nice, it gives you a bit of time to get to your destination in the afternoon and explore some of the local club trails if you have time.
I would pull the carbs off and clean them. Put some new plugs in it too. Have a look at the clutches as well and your belt condition. Make sure your tool kit is ready in case you do blow a belt or have to change plugs.
As for the chain case, it doesn't hurt to pull the cover of and inspect inside. Have a look at the chain tension and remove any "sludgy" oil.
Look at your sliders and carbides. Replace if needed. Adjust steering tow if needed.
Check the idler wheels.
Grease the skid and lube any other moving parts.
Check Coolant level
Inspect track and check tension
Check lights and that the gauges function
Check heated grips
Inspect for any leaks
Did you guys get much more snow the other night? I was planning on making a trip up to the camp on Hadlington on Friday but not sure if I will need the ATV to get in.
