Alcohol, speed, and water are the cause of most snowmobile deaths and injuries in North America. Please everyone, ride safe, ride sober, and in control at all times.

revct1 Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 (edited) I read the article without looking at the date and thought there were already 5 deaths but the article is from Feb 2010. Ride safe. Jack Edited November 30, 2010 by revct1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greasemonkey Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Another drinkin death!!! I am just glad he did not hurt anyone else. Unfortunately, no matter how much some of us preach the importance of NOT drinking while riding, there are some out there who will insist that they can handle it and that others should mind their business. I always cringe when I walk into a relay and the tables are loaded with empty beer bottles. don't get me wrong, I'll have a half dozen or so at dinner and after but I'm in for the night. Well, here's another reason why some of us preach and the season didn't even start! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
