tricky Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 My riding buddy, Malcolm, lost his black Samsung phone Thursday afternoon, March 9, somewhere on the D trail between River Valley and the A trail (highway 11). He had the phone in his pocket when we left the restaurant in River Valley, but he didn't zip up the pocket and the phone was gone when we stopped at the A trail intersection. We thought he had left it at the restaurant, but they said later that it wasn't left behind. We went back to re-ride the trail today, but it had been groomed over night, a good thing generally. Hoping someone found the phone before it got groomed. If you hear of this phone, please contact me here, or Rick at 905-878-4439. Thanks. This has been a good reminder to back up your files regularly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tricky Posted March 16 Author Share Posted March 16 Took six days, in which time a new phone was purchased and activated, but there has been a development in the 'missing' phone case. Seems there has been a senior's moment involved. Last week was my buddy's first ride on his new-to-him Skidoo which came with a different Linq tail bag than he had on his previous sled. Seems this new bag has a small zipped compartment on the underside of the lid. That is where he found his phone today, hidden by a spare balaclava. And my wife thinks I am bad when I 'lose' a pair of drug-store reading glasses for a day or two. 5 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grover_yyz Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Shows how important to develop a pattern prior to riding. Always put your equipment (phones, glasses, keys) in the same pocket or compartment each and every time. Also get in the habit to always close your bags immediately after getting out what you need. It has taken me a few season to perfect the location of all my stuff. Jerry 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always close the zippers when they go in and when I sit down onto the sled I reach down and feel for both before lift off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
