Re: Last chance riding
Jesse Took my last ride of the year today. Trails in Val Des Bois were still 99% covered and frozen solid, but there are bare spots here and there. My wife reminded me that this was my 3rd last ride of the year. Time to put the Diablo up on stands and get it ready for Port Washington. Here are a cou...

I use old shop air line. I change them every year to keep things snug. Haven't come across anything more durable yet.

Re: Not enough snow
Great stuff Jesse.Here's what I got of the run. Not much material. It's hard to handle the Diablo in deep snow, driving with one hand and filming with the other. I'm glad we had Barrie's hus-ski to break trail. In other years, I broke trails with snowshoes and the Diablo a day ahead. That was a work...

Re: Not enough snow
Here are a couple more pictures of the weekend and some random thoughts. Jesse christened his 500 in deep snow, just minor front end damage. On the plus side, his power train purred right along all weekend. Jeannot's clutch blew up and made Barrie a very happy fellow. He used my Hus-ski Hauler to pu...

Not enough snow
Remember a week ago when everyone here was complaining about not enough snow. In the past week we got 2'. I spent 6 hours on Sunday breaking trail in Val Des Bois. Believe me , there is now enough snow. To top it off, another 40-60 cm (about 18-20") are forecast by Sunday and more on Monday. We're d...

Bruce.
Just watched the video on Clear Lake. Nice job. Great to see that many Diablos in one spot. Looking forward to Port Washington next year.

Re: Get out and Ride! 1/2/16
Great ride again Thanks Mike O'Reilly and all the volunteers. This year the good weather held out until the last day or so and forced the making of a new land trail to Quyon. Very nice and longer at 50k round trip. A lot of extra work and organizing.This is the only picture I took on the Constance B...

Re: Get out and Ride! 1/2/16
Get out and ride...... says it all for tomorrow. Constance Bay vintage run goes tomorrow. Looking at -30C/-22F with a mild wind chill. The organizers have put in a lot of work to get this Royal Canadian Legion fundraiser off the ground this year, with the weather conditions. I'll be out there tomorr...
