I don’t have the big display on sled. I just use BRP go app on phone. Going to try the group tracking feature. Headed for Nfld riding in Gros Morne tomorrow for a week. Be nice to see mates on screen if get separated. -
Mine too, she makes so much stuff on it and loves the challenge of a new project. -
Anyone else try the group tracking on the doo's this year? I found it was handy for keeping track of the group depending on the zoom level. Too close and their off the screen. I also noticed in tighter bush trails it didnt work all that great but in the more open trails if you were zoomed out on the screen a bit it worked great and better than having your phone app on all day. Same here. 4 max and those 4 need to be self sufficient and no drama with good working machines. -
I quite often lead…so any group is given the same rules. Number one rule…Everyone is responsible for the sled behind them. Always make visual contact and look for thumbs up. Do not worry about sled in front, he is responsible to watch for you. If you lose sight of sled behind..you stop, turn back if needed and find missing sled. The leader must also take responsibility for the sled behind, any intersection or difficult corner must make contact w sled behind..and so on. New riders are always focused on sled in front of them for fear of getting lost.. they need to be told opposite is more important. Wide northern trails w few intersections can definitely spread a group out. Remote areas w no cell reception and frigid temps can be dangerous. That being said I don’t like to ride w a large group,I actually avoid it. 2-3 riders is preferred ..4 max otherwise it’s just too slow to get anywhere. Big warmup on the way..I’m optimistic that there will be a couple weeks at end of March N Ont and Que with some good riding yet. Get after it while you can!

So, where did the missing coolant go? was some work recently done on the sled, if not, he might have an issue that needs to be looked at. I will say it is not possible to keep trailing sled in view, with a group of sled on a cold day, the amount of snow dust makes that impossible, most will hang back behind the cloud so they can see, which makes intersection stops, high risks corners and routine stops every xx km a good thing. otherwise some good practices to try and keep in check!
