Hey weez I will for sure take you up on that beer next time I'm up there. Would love to see what that crusier will go through!!!! We can also haul your 650 to my place and hit some of my trails.

Kids will grow like wild fire, and like fire they are only fun while you still have them under control!!!

well yesterday was a horrible day of wheeling, first i was about 15 miles from home and i blew a tire, luckily we were about 100 yards from a guys place we know well and i put my spare on. the spare is alot smaller so i drove it home slow, luckily i don't have the rearend locked up yet. the funny part is we were about 200 yards from the canadian border playing in the gravel pit and the border patrol sent a big helicopter to circle us, good to see my hard earned tax dollars being wasted. anyways i grab my fourwheeler and i am trying to hurry up and get back with the group as there was about 25 of us and i am going about 65 and KABOOM, here i thought i blew out my tranny but luckily it was just my belt. lone behold i am about 1/2 a mile from my parents place and i call one of my buddies to come pull me to my parents place. so it takes him about 20 min to get there and by that time i had the clutch cover off with the stock lil tool kit. he pulls me to my parents place and luckily i had a spare belt hanging on the wall so i got that going and drove over to my buddies place and go into his ditch and got burried. well i got pulled out went and parked the fourwheeler and started drinking beer lol.it was alot of fun though, we had a pig roast.

My family and friends were just at Spider Lake September 12. We had a sweet time. We sold out AC400 so I borrowed my father-in-laws 07 Polaris Sportsman 500 HO. As a long time AC lover and Polaris hater it saddens me to say that the Sportsman was the nicest wheeler there and performed the best. The grizzly broke it's differential, the 03 500 broke it's differential, everyone else drowned their bike at least once. I was the only one that didn't drown or ruin anything. AC should follow Polaris' air intake, belt intake and belt exhaust plans. All of them are under the pod, where the AC's belt exhaust is sadly either by the tail light or in the right rear wheel well, both of which are sucky spots. Here's a picture video of us riding water wheelies and just playing in the gravel pit that usually kills a machine.

I ride that pit 3 times a year and have yet to swamp it. I watched a Grizzly and a CanAm suck water in that hole. I hunt there also every year. Very nice Forest.
