I wonder what the chances are of the T.O. sled being cancelled?
Haven't heard about the OFSC AGM in September.
Whether it will be cancelled or not.

It might come to an abrupt halt with no building inspectors.
Apparently they can do it online.
Just ask the meat packing plants in Alberta!

Who do you get to service shocks and what does it cost? Something I've heard about lots, but never did. Does it make much difference,?
signfan, I'm located just south of you on Rice Lake. We have a member of our club who has been servicing and rebuilding shocks for several years now.
Once this virus thingy is over, you are welcome to drop them off here and I will get them done for you at a much lesser cost than you will find elsewhere.

One rider was sporting 'colours'. WTF When did H-D last offer an offroad bike? I know they did @ 1 time.
In the early 80's, I think

I'd like to wear one, but haven't found one that didn't feel like I was wearing a straight jacket.
All I've tried have been bulky, awkward, and very restrictive. Perhaps I'm too large (250 lbs) for anything "off the rack"
What I wear in all temps is just a t-shirt and sweat pants plus jacket and bibs.

OPP LOOKING FOR INFORMATION REGARDING SNOWMOBILE COLLISION
(OTONABEE-SOUTH MONAGHAN TOWNSHIP, ON) - Members of the Peterborough County Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) and emergency services were called to assist after two snowmobiles collided on Rice Lake south of the First Nation Territory of Hiawatha. The collision occurred on February 16, 2020 at approximately 10:50pm.
A group of approximately fifteen people were travelling together on snowmobiles when the collision occurred. A male suffered serious injuri es and was transported to a Toronto area hospital by Ornge Air Ambulance. A female suffered minor injuries and was transported to a local hospital for treatment.
Two males travelling separately attended the scene due to a large fire resulting from the snowmobiles colliding. Members of the group became angry at the males and assaulted them.
Members trained in Collision Reconstruction attended to measure and document the scene.
Police are looking to speak with anyone who may have witnessed or has any information regarding this incident. Police urge the public to call in tips on this case, or others, to the Peterborough OPP at 705-742-0401, the non-emergency line (888) 310-1122 or to Crime Stoppers.

How much ice is there in the middle of the lake?
Really hard to tell!
I have some neighbours that are running from Golden Beach to Hiawatha and they are advising of pressure cracks, slush and open water.
We have over 15 inches in our bay, but there are places on the lake that are still open (springs, railway piles, etc)
Unless you have some real good local knowledge or until the lake is staked, I would not advise running it

No gas in Balieboro anymore, closed this summer.

That is a consideration but if can be done. At work I could get into the Navistar International trucks system (corporate + 600 dealerships)and change status of truck inventory for our dealership only.
Perhaps with some training it could be an option.

True, but couldn't like PLC says, something be added? That being said, some clubs may want to be more proactive in the reporting than others (who could continue to let the District handle it).
I hear what your saying, and perhaps it could be done that way. However seeing as the ITG is such an important feature of the OFSC, it would be a disaster if it was disabled inadvertently by having too many fingers in the pie, so to speak.

Are club executives not allowed access to 'Clubhouse'?
Clubhouse and the ITG are separate entities.

On our northern trip 10 years ago this month, the '08 Apex 'lost' this bearing north of Sportsmans Lodge. The rider limped it up to Timmins.
The service staff gave him some info when it was ready. He showed us the print outs when he caught up to us in Timmins. Using a needle attachment on the grease gun, squirt grease thru the seal.
I usually just remove the seal and force the grease into the bearing using a needle attachment and my finger, then replace the seal. Did it for 10 years on the RX-1, without any issue at all.

Locals are running it, but there are some pressure cracks
Without some local knowledge of the the lake I wouldn't advise it.
It is true, there is no gas available at Bewdley

Spent the past 4 days in the Mattawa area riding the Missing Link trails
Trails were a 9 out of 10 and the Mattawa Golf and Ski club was up to it's usual standards.
Sorry we missed SledJunk. but we only saw a handful of sleds in the area, visited the Mica mine and a couple of lookouts
