Did anyone see me pulling a kitty on my polaris on sunday across island pond?? Last weekend it was me and i got pulled by a kitty and i got to return the favor this weekend. Both of us threw studs. I just had minor problems on saturday bending a trailing arm going across railroad tracks but my neighbor straightened it and welded it up for me that night.

Bent trailering arms suck. I wouldnt trust one after being 'fixed', you might want to replace it over the summer. Are you going to replace the track cause of the thrown studs?? Im missing one with a big chunk on the out side edge of the track missing,..Click to view attachment so im going to take the track off the 05 and put it on the 04, then buy a new 1.25 track for the 05 replacing the old .91 track over the summer. Might change some bearings as well while I have it apart.

Im not changing my track i have only lost one, but my buddy that threw one this weekend has thrown them before but they have never hit his heat exchanger and i still think hes keeping his track. I will probably get a new trailing arm this summer or before next winter since they are a pretty important part of the sled lol. It held up pretty good tho, I wasnt anything close to easy on it and i finished off the trip with a good jump over a dock with a row boat on the top upside down and got about 10 feet of air and landed flat on the ice and it didnt do anything.

Hope you didn't damage C & S row boat or dock. That would stink if you put a hole in it. Please be careful!

There was tons of snow on top of the dock and it was hard so i didnt really even go into the snow.. so its fine! I wouldnt have done it if it wasnt like that because i know the poeple and i wouldnt want to see them sinking the boat even though it would probably give me a pretty good chuckle.

Doesn't make a difference "HOW" much snow is on someones private property. What gives anyone the right to cross and potentially damage it? I watched a similiar situation on a lake this winter. Kids kept crossing several docks and private property in an effort to "gather some air." Spinning their tracks was part of the effort. Nice!

small world- I think you missed the C & S part-initials of the boat owners. My point is you are just having fun but do it on your own dock. As a local landowner I don't appreciate folks having fun riding over my wood pile, over our flat bed trailer and just taking the risk of getting hurt off the well marked trail and then suing me for their injuries. This is why trails get closed. Feel free to come up and help take down signs and work on trails. We will be meeting the first weekend in May pending conditions. PM for info- you know me via water tubing. Weeza

Ohh really thats you!! how did you know who i was?? It is a small world. By the way i know i didnt do anything to there dock or boat because i didnt even go through the snow an inch and i didnt spin on the dock at all. i just hit it with some speed and up over it i went. I did it after my friends had done it and im just guessing that the boats on there because theres a shit load of snow on top of it (could be all snow). Oh well you do make a good point though and its probably best not to do that kind of stuff anymore.

XCSPKID600-Based on some of the info you provided, feedback and posting after the lights have been on at your camp! I almost asked you when I was over taking pictures of the chimney falling down AGAIN. You just never know! Have fun and be safe. We are headed south for some SUN! smiley-faces7.gif weeza and groominfool
