haaa !!!
this my personal opinion...so, i hope no one is going to give me bs !!! haha
tomorrow i win at the lottery...no thx...i won t buy it !!!
from what i know ...and i believe that ...early season,start grooming very wide...why ??? because if you lose the edge of the trail during the season...drifts ..etc....naturally ,you ll narrow your trail because you ll be scared to fall in the ditch or deep snow...so , if machine lean too much on the same side ...good luck ..make sure you have a good shovel and lots of friends !!! samething with your 4 x 4 truck...throw it in the ditch...try to come back on the road !!!
i read or heard about a club that hit a stump with one track....20-25 00.00 $$ damage
and a few stories on french about transmission !!!
so, tomorrow ,i win at the lottery ..i ll buy 2 tracks !!!
and personally i feel safer with 2 tracks....don t forget ..you re alone when grooming ...your friends are not always close by...
about 2 miles after we met ... you saw the drifts with the stand on the right and clear cut....better be careful with 4 tracks not to go too far on the right...or even both side....plouck !!! kapuut !!!
buying a groomer depend what kind of terrain you have...big hills...big drifts etc...

hi terry !!!
honestly ....no !!! first time i see that one !!!...great shot btw !!! all photogenic except that one eating branches ...looks like he is nt much interested !!
most of the deer i see....at the exit for the auberge or the long hill east of the bridge behind church....there s few behind gas station !!!
saw my first '' tourist '' around 9 am....about 3 miles east of 90' corner and roughly 1 mile before hill with antler !!!
lost about 45 mins waiting for him to move...stopped motor and waited....with door open to take pics...about half an hr later...getting cold..started motor again...moose was waiting...came closer...then i guess he smell (?) something ...then he made a u-turn and went east...started grooming very slowly ....i knew i had work to do in the drifts...just good for him to go ahead of me !!!

Hi JG,
It was great to meet you in person. You have always been so helpful to us on the internet.
We rode back and forth on TQ5 to study where all the beautiful pictures are taken. TQ5 was in very nice condition yesterday. We saw plenty of evidence team Iceman has visited your trails.
Thanks again for all you do for us snowmobiles.
Jim & Gemma

Haha...I think there is a picture somewhere of when I tried to give him a hug at the Clubhouse the first time I met him (Jean-guy is able to remember the date) but years ago now....its not easy! I will try again this time, he says I am bossy...so I will try that.
I will pick you up anytime...I think we would have a lot of fun!

Cool video, all those places I rode last week and I can see they are still in great shape.
Did you guys make that little bridge over the ditch?
That makes it much easier to access the trail from your place.
The word is out that Eric landed himself a Sidewinder.....

Very nice, the two Olympic's in the opening shot grabbed my attention. My first sled was very much like them, 1964 14 hp.👍🏻
