Hope you guys have as much fresh pow as were gonna ride in Revelstoke!
It would be cool if these 900 rides grow and continue over the years. I'm gonna do my best to attend both next year!

YES SIR..

i am riding again friday here to get some more testing/tuning on my 900, and then final adjustments if any will be done on the spot or at work on sat...then sunday i will get off work that morning, go home, pack up all my crap an head out around noon-2pm, its a 5hr drive...so i "should" be there around 7pm...but upwards to 9pm worse case...

 

[diamonddave]

Okay Bruce. I've got it figured out. Leave your sleds with Sean after your Cooke trip. Then take the puddle jumper to Great Falls and drive up with Sean for Revy or just fly into Kelowna and hitch a ride. Then after the ride, throw your sleds in a rental truck and drive home.

 

[05900]

Damn now thats an idea ^^^^^^!!!!

Still paying for my last "vacation".... so close yet so far!
