Been really busy here. Lost track of my mileage day by day, but I have rode around 270 km´s since last log.
Been riding out in the field doing work and in my freetime too. Best time of the season is at hand. Warm days, lots of fresh snow (sun is over the horizon more than it´s down, so the day is longer than the night here right now)
Having lunch at work

Yep! It´s that time of year again. I´ll be out for the weekend with my friends. This time I´ll take my 4 stroke Warrior as my ride. As will my friend take his Warrior. Also my other friend will have his Vector LTX. And this time we´ll be joined with a guy with his Viper. So, all Yamaha group.
We have about 800 km´s of riding ahead of us.

After 3 days and 628 km´s later I´m back at home. This year was the 10th year with my friends riding in our beautiful country. So, it was kinda special 3 days.
Great 3 days: awesome weather, lots of snow and fun with my friends. My sled worked perfectly and most of all I used half the gas what I did in previous years riding my Vmax-4. Average fuel consumption was 14,5 litres / 100 km´s with my Warrior.
Our cabin at Lokka.
Parked on the trail on our way to Kemihaara.
Cooking some sausages.
Scenery.
Sunset from the top of Vuoltinen. Lokka resevoir in the backgroung.
Rest of the pics can be found from :

I´ll add more pics there soons as possible.
mileage: 628 km
weather: awesome!

I loaned my sled to brother and her girlfriend for a day. I rode to Luosto and back with it (they also had his 440 Rev).
And in easter time we were at Kemijärvi icefishing. Not too much luck with the fishes, but had great time on the lakes riding. Sorry no pics since I forgot my camera home.

weather: awesome +9!

800cc final and open final. 800 cc was won by 800PTek Lynx and the open class by PSI 1404 cc Thundercat what my friend owns.
The track
That Thundercat, F8 and my Warrior.
I did quite good in the short 200 m run with my Warrior, Beat Poo 600 RR, Doo 600 XRS. One Nytro was just a little too fast for me and one 600 Open Mod Cat also beat me.
Well, I need a better track for my sled for theese slush conditions.
