Hi guys!
Had to change the title to something else because I have so many threads with "some pictures from the weekend" lol.

Well anyway Friday night I went riding with my friend who has the Vector Mountain. The snow was "rock hard" everywhere so we had to stop all the time to throw snow into the track & to put snow on the running boards. But atleast my friend got to test his sled, on our last ride his secondary axle bearing went to hell so he`s been working on the sled all week. The funny thing was that when he got the sled to town, he managed to tip the trailer over, with the sled under the trailer.. shitty. But it went fine, the handlebar saved everything else.

On Saturday I went riding with another friend of mine who rides a Lynx Enduro 583 (poor guy), but we had a nice ride. The sun melted the snow so it got soft and it was really fun.

I cross this bridge everytime I drive home from town..

On Wednesday in last week , a Yamaha bus came to my town, brought the 09 RTX SE and the XTX and the new Ventures. So my shop made a little test-drive arrangment and it was really fun.

On Sunday I went riding again, a friend from town borrowed my sled and I rode my bike. I`m sad to say that the sun melted the snow so fast that it was impossible to ride the dirtbike because the wheels went through the snow all the time.
So instead I jumped on my neighbours RS Venture TF (who also rode with us) so that my friend could have fun on the Viper. After a little while my neighbour wanted me to ride the Venture, felt kind of awkward since I`m 70kg`s and he`s an "adult" heavy guy. Lol. But it was fun. We rode all the way to the highest point of our island.

My friend and I discussing what hills to climb.. notice my boots. I don`t recommend riding sleds with dirtbike boots.

On our way down I found some hills that I havent tried to climb before because I doubted that I would get to the top, but since the snow was pretty hard and gave good traction I had to have some fun.

I feel like a wuzz when saying that it`s steep but the pictures doesn`t do the "steepness" justice.

When we went riding on Saturday I glanced at this hill, I rode up there and walked up to the steepest part, but I didn`t dare to climb it since I only had on friend with me, would be a struggle to get it down if I were to get stuck.

But on Sunday I just had to pin it:)

Dood I don`t mean to brag but the pictures doesnt show how steep it is.
(sorry for bragging, lol).

Wellwell that`s all.. hope to ride some more this weekend:)

Hello Kimoaj!

Long time no see. I see the sled's still running strong! Great pictures by the way, your having fun I see. :)

Maybe I will come visit you on your Island some day, a weekend or so. Could have been fun.

Take a look at my pictures to see what I've done. Don't smash me because because of leaving you 2-strokers ;)

Dude, those are some awesome pictures - I'm jealous as he*l and want to move to Norway!!! - what I liked the best was riding up on top of a mountain overlooking open water down below - mega sweet!!! ;)!
 
It is always nice to go through the old pictures to get the blood pumping for this year! You look like "The Poser" in some of those shots. lol..... Nice Pictures for sure!
 
Beautiful pictures as well as a nice sled. I would suggest that you wear a helmet when your doing climbs like that though, it doesn't take long for you to make a little mistake and find your sled rolling, possibly over you. Just watching out for my fellow yamaha riders
