I am packing and getting ready to go to moms for T-day week. I am back at 1:30 AM on the 30th. Maybe 4 hours sleep and be ready for the Chatinika ride. If the machine is out of Craigs shop. :sympathy:

Wes, bring a chain saw along :)

Opie, this will be a family ride, so bring the wife and kid.

Larry, I think they call it a Jet Ski in Florida :) (send you email with some questions).

I haven't been on the trail to the Lodge yet but understand there are lots of trees down on it. Also Mud Hill is bad. We've spent the last 3 days installing new drive sprockets on the groomer so haven't even dug out our sleds except for the Skandic WT and the lights aren't working on it. Also you can't turn it off with the key or kill switch until it has warmed up. The starter and hand warmers work ok. Both headlights and tail light are out. The only fuse I can find is ok. Its an 06 550 fan, any thoughts anyone.
