Welcome aboard. We'll be re-opening the trail conditions section in a bit... We hope to have a lot of club and member input so it'll be a great resource for all riders. Hopefully you'll be willing to contribute ;)

Hey welcome and how are the trails up their now after the thaw:confused:

Well if I can beet the freezing rain that is coming in tomorrow I have reservation at Katahdin Cabins. The freezing rain is one factor. The other major one is me waking up and heading out before the rain comes. I work second shift and it is very hard for me to get up earlier then 11 in the morning.

If all works well and I do go I will have to give my report on the cabins and the trail report.

Hope you beat the rain... it's pretty nasty down here.

Weather is great up here. We got no rain at all. We just got back from a night ride. I am trying to fix my sled now with no luck. The recoil pulled out and will not retract.

Skip the owner of the place is an awesome guy. I will defiantly come back here again. I wish he was up now so I could borrow a pair of pliers. I think that is all I need. I need to get the springs off my exhaust to I can get to the recoil behind it.

Well I need to get back out and hopefully the exhaust has cooled down enough for me to try working on it again.

Metal coat hangers work well on the springs. I guess you got it fixed judging by your report.

Actually I did not get it fixed. I ended up using the emergency pull cord in my tool kit for the rest of the weekend. This involved wrapping a pull cord around the outside of the clutch and pulling starting it. It is a good thing my sled starts easy.
