New To Oyama(Kelowna/Vernon Area)

[ippielb]

Just looking to see who all goes riding around this area. I'm going to be moving to Oyama at the beginning of the month and i am looking for some riding partners. I'm better at building sleds then riding them at the moment but hopefully someone will give me some time to get better.

Also, where is there to ride around this area? How are the conditions looking?

I ride a 2004 F7 Firecat Sno Pro EFI with a D&D Big Bore 800, Aerocharger 53 Turbo with 2.5" Straight Pipe Exhaust, Extended to 153" with an Attack 20 Track 2.25" lug.

I've only been to the mountains once, but i'm eager to learn.

Awesome, i will send you a PM, should be out there at that time as well. I'm just trying to finish my truck right now, re-gearing it to 4.56 front and rear axles, intake manifold gasket and knock sensors, electric fan kit, steering box, and dual steering stabilizers, should be done this week. And heading out on the weekend. Sending you a PM now.

Thank you for the spots, i have heard of lumby, hunters range, and that's about it. Is there anything else around oyama? I'd like to ride from the house would make life a lot easier.

Thanks for the replies guys. See you out there!

From Oyama yu can head straight back into the hills and start riding. Alot of people with machines have cabins at the various lakes behind lake country. You can also get to greystokes from the dee lake area if need be. Greystokes is a great plae to cut your teeth with the hunters area having bigger hills.

If you dont have much ride time on the sled, greystokes will suit you just fine. great hill to learn on,and not too far away.After a little sled time you can also check out owl and eagle. Deep and deeper. cheers
