Arctic JC

The bunny hill does make for a long day, I tried to get a few runs in here and there throughout day to split it up. It is surprising how well the little ones do, the lack of fear, or feeling of pain definitely helps. Some of the most fun he had was falling and being covered in snow, and laughing his butt off.

Skied there on Friday with the family, conditions were great, good temps and fresh snow all day. We didn’t see any brown patches, bonus day out for us, nice to have one more “winter” day. My little guy took to skiing well this season, no issues making it down the bunny hill without falling. He’ll be 3 in June. My wife’s in for some competition next season.

Not sure which is more appropriate? 😄 or 🥲

Crazy pricing doesn’t even justify the stupidity…. T Cat is $28.4k pre tax before any other charges or add ons. Over $32k plus out the door. Insane. I bought mine in February of 2019, granted it was mid season but with the discounts that year this is almost double what I paid. Fortunately for me the miles are low and all preventative maintenance items have been completed so no need for a new one. A SxS for $15-20k is looking more and more appealing each day. Family fun at the cottage that can be used 10-12 months a year.

Snowing steady all morning in Wasaga, had lots of fun playing in the snow, my son riding his mini Viper, and testing out all the new ski gear making sure he’s warm and comfortable. Consistent snow on the way home until 89. Barrie looked like there was slightly more snow. (Little guy is ready to rail corners on a 120 next winter )

Very nice!!

What kind of SxS did you pick up?

Cat released their ‘25 models today. Those 858 ZR Catalysts are going to do well I think especially with how positive the feedback has been with the 600’s. I stopped by the dealer last Friday and was able to sit on a few 600 Catalysts, very different to the Yamacats, sled went on a huge diet, seating position is much more forward. Nice seeing new tech/stuff from Cat. https://snowgoer.com/news/2025-arctic-cat-snowmobiles-unveiled-the-zr-lineup/32104/ ‘23 600 review: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UUCtrbjw2Js

Trailer prices seem to be a little more consistent currently. I sold my Legend hybrid last Sunday in under a week for good money but then had to spend a good amount more for my new 7x14 cargo that is being built first week of January. I’ve had good luck with not loosing anything on my 2 previous trailers, I’m hoping that holds true for the new one also.

Ramsomair, how are you liking the Lynx?? Haven’t seen too many pics of the SRX…

Merry Christmas everyone!! All the best!

Pretty impressive reveal today! 2 stroke trail turbo and a new 4s that sits in the Matryx chasis. Nicely done Polaris

The leaked video can be found on the Bikeman performance FB page. Very cool Turbo’s!! Can’t wait to see all the details later this afternoon. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10159519508007850&id=339730972849&fs=60&focus_composer=0&m_entstream_source=video_home&player_suborigin=entry_point&player_format=permalink

That’s a nice new gauge, and finally some LED headlights!!

I’ve had this happen also, only happens to me on colder days when the visor is left open after riding for a trail side stop. Moisture will freeze up on the rubber seal of the helmet and or on the edge of the visor where it meets the seal. Any time that I’ve felt air I have always been able to clear the ice off by running my finger along the seal to make sure it’s clear of build up and eliminate any air leak.

Awesome pics Stoney!!

First ride of the season for me yesterday, was joined by some good company, it was nice to see @WinderFab and @FIRE242 again. We launched out of the Port Perry club house and headed to Fenelon Falls. Back down to Port Perry and over towards the Ganaraska forest. 230km, there were some thinner spots heading north but the clubs have done an amazing job with what they had. Rail lines were in good shape. There is a lot more snow heading east out of Port Perry though, at least double if not more. Nice to finally give the arms a good turbo stretching

RIP 02sled, my condolences to his family.

Crazy times now, I ordered a new Ram on March 30th, it still hasn’t showed. In July it was flipped to a ‘22 and they provided me a new vin. 22’s started being built this week, and Canadian orders that were flipped to 22’s seem to be being produced first this week, hopefully my truck arrives early October. 6 plus months after I ordered it, lol was told 8-12 weeks when I did. Luckily I was able to purchase a very low mileage F150 for precovid pricing in June to hold me over until the Ram arrives. Plan to trade it in for a slight profit. Best of luck to all waiting on anything these days!!

Awesome pics!! Glad conditions worked out for everyone, trails look amazing

Looking back at the pics of the ride two weeks ago I can’t believe I didn’t ask you about the mount and bags you use. Are you happy with the UNT mount?? With the SR21 bag alone can you still use the med tunnel bag in front of it??

Awesome!! Thank You!

“Like”

Great pics @revrnd!! And a good season too! Is that the SR21 LinQ bag you have? How do you like it, thinking of running that bag on the Cat next year instead on the large Cat tunnel bag.

@revrnd we must have just missed you, stopped to have a bite to eat at the Top A and L123 near Moonbean right around noon... I guess those were your tracks we saw
