    You guys won’t  be disappointed with the Ice Ripper, I’ve been using those tracks for years, gave up on the studs for obvious reasons, in my case the tracks were ripping on the outer edge. I recently had to change my original Ice Ripper on my Enduro so I opted for a 1.6 lug in a 16” width. If you do the calculation the 16” x 137” has more square inches of coverage than a 15” x 144”. For a 137” it does quite well off trail and gives you the grip off the line on the trail. Good luck and happy trails.

    what was the reason for the change?How many miles were on it?

  5. When will it stop?

    Some years ago on the railbed just north of Temiscamingue we came around a curve and saw what we thought was a deer loping along about a 1/4 mi. ahead. As we gradually got closer it turned sideways to look back @ us and with it's furry tail we realized it was a wolf. When we got within about 50 m. he jumped off and as we got up beside where he'd disappeared he was just down to the side baring his fangs as we rode past. As the last rider past he jumped back on the trail and started loping along behind us! We took off a few mi. up the trail and stopped and wondered what would happen if you broke down/ran out of gas and he came along?

    1.)That's why you always need to ride with at least one buddy who is slower than you.

    2.)Chances  are a single wolf is not going to take on a pack of helmet wearing aliens unless it is rabid.

    3.)If it is,refer back to #1😉

    "I use the ATM to get the best rate"

    That never occurred to me.  Has anyone else done that? Thanks

    Not a member of AAA.

    My bank has to order it and I will be back by the time they get it.  Another bank in town has canadian $ but you have to be an account holder there.

    I'll check out the place in Cornwall.  But the leading contender is an ATM in Shawinigan.

     

    All the time.You get the current rate with no fees except for the ATM fee which my bank refunds.ATM's are everywhere.

  21. Team Iceman report..... trip 2

    Anymore insight on the communicators? Battery life / clarity / distance

    years ago we ran the collets and I thought they brought much value for safety.....groomer beacon, wash out, oncoming traffic etc

    after they went out of business we never pursued another system

     

     Collett is still in business.Ordered from them last year. They work great.
