A new season is almost here, time for a change and a late birthday present to myself. No more MTN Lite for me, picked up a 08 Poo Dragon 700 155 last weekend from the boys at Colorado Power Sports. Alex picked up a new Apex MTN 162 with rider forward setup and lefty for the steep and deep climbs…. should work out well. STE is getting the Bearcat Widetrack dialed up in Steamboat so all we need now are a couple of good storm cycles. This season is starting off pretty slow, it was nice too get out last Thursday and do some snowboarding, ended up taking the MTN Lite out on Friday with Kaleb.. So at least we’ve got a couple of days on snow.
Colorado Power Sports has a bunch of sweet deals on sleds at the moment, a couple of nice Dragon’s and RMK’s left. All the new Nytro’s are out on the floor and I’ve heard of a couple reports that the MTX is the best 4 stroke yet. If your looking for a good deal on a machine stop by and talk to Greg… they also have some hold overs and good deals on last years demos sleds. If you go, check out the Boondockers turbo Apex putting out 200 horse.. red white and blue.
As far as the CFR goes it looks like it couldn’t be easier to install on the new Dragon. Polaris is using a new tunnel design and the rack system uses T-bolts to slide into the tunnel and lock from the top. Should have it all installed by this weekend.
For 2008 Dave at CFR has some new products and improved rack designs, currently the online store is down while the new package deals are worked out and new pricing. Take a look below for the new 08 brochure:
Please print out and sign this petition, return via registered mail. This will ensure that your voice is heard. Far too often we get some wilderness nazi or some other boulder tree hugger type that wants to close down access to a certain areas. It is your time to fight back and help your fellow riders. Now, we are based in the states but we have many friends and contacts in Canada, who clued us in on these new proposed closures in British Columbia. This case in Canada seems to be set to the same tune as most of these proposals in the US, some looser skier or snowshoer thinks they deserve not to hear my snowmobile. Here are areas that are effected:
Face Mountain
Peterson Valley
Rhododendron
Upper Lillooet River
Pebble Glacier and North Creek
Noel Creek and Hope Creek
Upper Soo Valley
Callaghan Valley, Rainbow
Phelix Creek Elaho
Glendenning and Simms
Meager Valley
