2013-2014 Blue Mountains Part 1

[CB.8]

Well I thought it was about time to start a new one.

Update on the summer.

Finished the shop.

M8 in 10000 pieces getting the bulkhead fixed. (waiting for parts)

Brother's dragon is in the new shop preparing to become fire breathing. (I am installing an HM turbo for him)

Mike never told me that I needed to get the Cat fixed. Looks like dam thing is going to multiply. Found a sweet M6 for the daughter. We are going to pick it up on Saturday. (white one in the picture)

Getting in shape for this winter to help Mike. (A picture is worth a thousand words)

CB 8 Don't Do IT!!!

CB 8 has given thought of putting a blower on the old Cat... but DO NOT DO IT!!!!

If you turbo that old boat you had better learn how to speak Chinese at that is where that trencher will in up!

Attached is CB8's new sled, state of the art snow horse

Over the summer did a motorcycle ride up the coast highway, CA, OR, and WA.

Did a lot of drag racing and got a Wally at the National Open NHRA race in Walla Walla (actually I got two ) At the Division finals I was a first round loser but Janet went rounds (4) with her old 600cc asphalt sled (just a week earlier she had done a near tail dragging wheelie in a test and tune session at Spokane and when the 800 came back down she bent everything

The race sled is Janet's new ride... now all I have to do is put a motor, clutches, pipes, electronics, etc. into it

Mike I am already working on the Chinese thing.

Sunoco = Fuel for boost

Hu flung dung = The product of boost

Dim tale lite= The only thing Mike will see of the boost.

Now I don't care who you are that is funny!

CB 8 in the parking lot

While we wait for snow, thought I would remind everyone of what CB 8 looks like in the parking lot

The first photo Rob is saying, "I drove up here somewhere, maybe it is over here"

Second photo is Rob trying to go where XPs go

Third photo is the main job of the mighty (no blower) E-Tech.. "CB 8 Tow Services"

I will hopefully be getting out next weekend! Hopefully there will be decent enough snow to have fun on the roads at least!

Hey Rob let me no if you go out for some early tunning any time after thanksginving i need to get some brake in miles on the new motor. Willing to drive to ride lol.

 

[CB.8]

Anytime. I got a new sled that needs tuned too. My 13 yo daughter got an m6 and I am going to clutch the piss out of it and ride on the deep days so Plum can keep up. What did you buy. New XM???

 

[rmk all the way]

Yeah got the red and white x. Got it from the dealer i worked at in high school back home so just waiting for thanksgiving to go up and get it and ride up there for a few days if all goes well.

Hunting is now done!

Well I can concentrate on more important things now like ummmmm bashing doos.

Daughter and I filled our Idaho deer tags this weekend. Filled our Washington Tags opening weekend. This was her first year to hunt. Got a little doe in WA at about 80 yards opening day. Today she shot a 2 point at her grandparents place at Waha. One shot kill at 280 yards!

 

[rmk all the way]

Looks like you have lung blood on your deer. Couldn't stand myself and went for a road trip to get the new sled today. Maybe if i cross my fingers may get a road ride in this weekend

 

[CB.8]

We are going to try to ride Sunday if the weather behaves. Won't be very exciting will have my 13yo on a 600 for the first time.

And yep a little lung blood. He went straight to the ground. 300 win mag at 230 yards. Some would say over kill but dead is dead. 25-06 ruins more meat then the 300. Have about 170 lbs of boneless venison in the freezer. Making 15 pounds of jerky tomorrow.

Word from the Skidoo camp is the snow is too deep on the mountain and they are afraid to go out tomorrow. So I am taking the daughter and her M6 on their maiden voyage. Oh yeah and a guy from work with a new poo is going too. He too is scared but is going to come anyway. On the conditions that the cats have to break trail.

 

[rmk all the way]

Oh the ski doo camp was out today don't you worry. We just wanted to let the cat be the king of the hill for one day this year. The new sled got 25 miles today and got to say the e tec was rather impressive but got to get use to the hole not giving it gas to start it. Way different then the 09 xp thats for sure and can't wait to get it out in deep snow and see what it can do. Pics to come if i can figure it out. Ill pm you my number cb8 so we can catch up and ride

Nice Photoshop work RMK We all know that camp skidoo was watching ballet all day on TV.

With that said Team Cat lost a member to team Skidont. Tyler ditched his M8 for a XRay or XM or what they call them these days.


I finally got someone to ride with that won't be scared of old man winter. Her name is CG.6 (picture 1)

As another alternative I now have Poo boy. (See picture 2. this is the face of a guy that was amazed that his sled didn't get stuck in 6 inches of snow.)

CG.6's sled is flat impressive for a little 600. Now all she needs is a lot of ridding lessons. Maybe we can get CB.7 out of retirement.

Hey, that was the deepest 6" of snow this season....kinda like this thread

 

[rmk all the way]

Got out today to burn off some of Thanksgiving dinner. Decided to get stuck once to get in shape for when I have to help dig out the stuck m8 that is halfway to china because it has a hair dryer under the hood haha. Hope everyone had a good holiday.

Entertaining stuff!. Hey RMK where did you find enough snow to get stuck in?

Harts pass out of mazama. I went home for thanksgiving and rode so of the old stomping grounds.
