Default Spokane Washington- N.Idaho- W.Montana riders lets get together here!

Ok, where is everyone riding on Tuesday? Not sure if I can make it or not. If going to Elsie, maybe. Fernan or Buncon probably not. Lots of trails up around Elsie area, but still some snow too. Probably be able to show you some fun stuff in a couple weeks, once the snow is all gone. As you all can see, I have owned a few different brands of quads, been riding since 96 with the old big red 3 wheeler. My Polaris, used very hard, engine was bullet proof, but replaced just about everything around it. Never had any issues with the belt, retired it after over 11000 hard miles. Then the Kawasaki. Again, no problems with the engine, lots of issues with the belt slipping, and all the little electric gadgets on it. Gone after 3500 miles. The Arctic Cat, only problem was with the stock Carlisle Bad lands, bead wouldnt seal, kept losing air. As far as the machine, 2800 miles in 11 months without one problem. Just got the griz, will wait and see. Just my 2 cents.

I guess some people never learn to back down!! The ONLY reason you <u>THINK</u> your quad is better is because you have the dreaded MBD! Holy Cow dude! There is only one way out, and it will always be a POLARIS showing you how to get there and don't you forget it!

LETS RIDE!

TUESDAY . . . 1130 . . . RAGGED IS TRAIL BOSS ON THIS RIDE! MY VOTE IS FOR LAKE ELSE!

Yes, it is passable on the main road, not sure about the trails, but can always give it a try. I will have to check in at work and see if I have anything going on tomorrow or not. If not, count me in.

ya Kodiac...the snow is most likely passable on your little rancher...lol....but the rancher would never make it thru the spring run off...the creeks are swoll..(that means big) the only quad I would put money would cross it would be a Polaris....there big and heavy enough to power right thru....but if you wanta come along you could just wait for us at the creek and we'll pick up up on the way home...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

xploreidaho....I think we will be out your way about 12ich....call me...509-994-3931

I have cut trails in roughly two feet of snow with no trouble at all. None. I have also rode in existing trails with some serious ruts. No trouble there either. Proofs in the pudding I say. I did almost dig myself in once going in reverse...and as I have mentioned prior I don't have 4x4 in reverse, so that is my achilles heel you might say. But even then I just hit the reverse over ride and blasted my way out of it. Rather enjoyed that actually. Was a good ride.

Niskibum congrats on getting ready to give Avista the finger. It is a good feeling indeed. Good way to get a little exercise too.
