Does the trip from the Garage to the trailer count...... was suppose to be in Muni this weekend but my wife needed to get her Gallbladder out instead, so needless to say I loaded my sled on the trailer and drove to my buddies house and that is as far as I got, so we will try in two weeks to make it to my cabin in St. Germain

About 400 last week in the UP. Rolled my viper 5miles into the first ride but I was ok
and the sled needs about $300 in parts. Im not complaining since I rolled it in a succesfull attempt at avoiding a 4x4 signpost that would have hurt/cost alot more than it did. Worst part is I was going real slow when it happened, wasn't screwing around. When they say low snow makes for icy corners they arent kidding. Learned a lesson and only suffered a bruised knee (and ego).

So far only 200 miles or there abouts. I thought I was going to have huge problems last weekend as I fouled 3 plugs in 15 minutes...After a 1/2 hour of investigation I discoved my oil line was seperating at the the adj. nut. Nothing a little elec. tape couldn't cure...ran like a champ after that. Gone Blue - hope you can get her fixed soon, that's a bummer.
