I have been keeping an eye on used truck prices as I will need one at some point. Definitely see prices slowly coming down and inventory staying on lots much longer.
let me know, I know a guy in the car business lol.

I can't do the muffs thing - so warm gloves I guess is a must - failing which- some hotshots in them.

Condolences to his friends and family, RIP and many thanks for all your service to our sport

Good luck with your efforts in finding new blood to help out the club, the struggle is very real for alot of clubs and I think will only get worse as the age of those volunteers gets higher.
Many thanks for all your years of service and volunteering. Hopefully you will find the time to enjoy the sport a bit more in the future.

I switched to Klim gloves last season and they work quite good. Ran FXR gloves for years and still use the pair I have from time to time.

So as you mentioned above, the group is cleaning up - that is good seeing as I think it has quite a large sledder following/group.
Perhaps you as an admin there has helped get it on the right track !
thanks and between all of us admins I think it is going well, with 30000 plus members there is always bound to be some asshats for sure, It is not a page for everyone, I think forums like this are the best, but many look to FB, I also help with a FB group, Ontario Realtime Sledding Information, we keep that group very tight, no advertising, no bashing, just riders posting pics of places they have been and live conditions.

The more you read, the worst it gets - digging their own grave it appears. I know my thoughts earlier this year was for the various groups to get together, find common ground, etc...for the better of the sport, but those thoughts are no more.
By all accounts, it seems no one or very few on this site support them at this point by making the ride, buying gas, etc......
Regarding that 705 group, I have heard about it for many years, but I do not think I have ever heard anything positive when it comes up - I am guessing a large group of members on it likely support base camp that leads to some entertaining dialogue.
Actually reading the comments as I’m also an admin on 705 it’s pretty clear the high majority of comments are not very favourable in Base Camps operations at all. Most comments are ones sharing similar experiences this year.

I just joined 705 Snowmobiles. Wow that was entertaining 😂😂
lol, I saw you had requested to join, it can be an interesting page to follow at times. I think it has gotten better in the past year or so, for a while it was a bit of a gong show

These guys just cant help themselves...
PBR really should consider just shutting that trail down next year. Truthfully, with the Base Camp hassles and the hydro work/logging that took place on both the east and west side this year, the trail was actually one of the roughest trails up there this year.
We went up as far as the warm up shack on the east side this year and fed the birds then turned around, there was some reroutes from the last time we were up there a couple years ago and had no real desire to go all the way up to Basecamp.

Bring your popcorn, it is getting nasty on the Post. Sad to see the way things have gone this year and it appears to be the wrong way.

23 Indy SP 650. Actually just got off the phone with customer service again, they said the order has been processed, the snow division just hasn’t sent out all the emails yet. The lady at Polaris customer service said I will be receiving a confirmation email soon.
I know for our 2022's we ordered I only got the email for one of the sleds, I am wondering if it is at the dealership level if they arent entering the customer's email address. Or a glitch in the system, either way glad to hear your order is confirmed.

We just got back from 3 days of riding in the Hearst area, Trails coming into Hearst are getting a little beat up but holding up, The loops around Hearst are amazing condition and looks like there is quite a bit of snow in the forecast coming this week. We rode to Hornepayne on Saturday and it was not too bad but very icy, scratchers are a must as they hadnt gotten the fresh snow.
We never went east of Mattice so can't comment on the conditions out that way. Hope this helps

I put my deposit down on March 2nd, so I just find it a little odd I haven’t got an email yet.
Check the spam folder it might be there, alternative is call Polaris customer service and they can confirm

Anyone else still waiting on email confirmation? I spoke with rickwards the other day and they said to wait another week and then contact us again if you still haven’t received it. Yes, Email is correct.
I got mine a few weeks ago

Thanks Nunz. I'm guessing A Trail will see alot of traffic again this weekend but a little snow and some colder weather should help out. Trying to decide on a trip up mid week.
Honestly drive the extra and go right to hearst that’s the consensus from everyone up here

Any updates from Cochrane to Hearst would be greatly appreciated.
I’m in hearst, the loops around hearst are in good condition and it’s snowing up here right now. Yesterday was warm so they took a hit conditions wise, roads are toast and into the hotels is getting thin.

Looks like a little trail "grease" is going to fall. Can't resist, heading up tomorrow for one more kick on the cats.

My guess is most trails in Muskoka will be shut down by the weekend and Lakes will be very slushy.

How long did it take for email confirmation to come through? I was told 48hrs, but I’m going on almost a week now.
Once your dealer locks it in you should get the email, I got mine a couple days after I confirmed with them on my choice

I’m considering the 650 SP 137”. I heard the 650’s are great, and the wife shouldn’t have any problems with the weight of the sled compared to her previous Yamaha viper.
Decent price I think $14,999+++++
I will also use this sled from time to time, and if it’s any good I may consider selling my viper and getting one myself. Anyone here have a 650 matrix? Are they good trail sleds?As most of you know my wife typically get new sleds every year and hers every other year, We have had the gamut of Polaris Sleds from 600's, 800's, 850's and now she is on a 2022 VR1 650, we found she never really got the full use out of the 850, after time spent in Minnesota a couple of years ago with @-crz- aka Jason and riding the prototypes I knew the 650 was perfect for her and she just loves it this year, we have about 1300 miles on them so far, not bad considering we only got them about a month ago. It has excellent bottom and mid range power, excellent for brisk trail riding, Top end we are seeing just over 100 mph on the Speedo.
Fuel economy and oil consumption are much better than my 850 for sure.
I have ridden it a few times and can't find fault with it at all.
I see you have ordered one, if you happen to be in Northern Ontario the next week shoot me a PM and we can meet up.

couple of our friends have these and really like them. They should fit on your wife's sled no problem.
