I drive logging trucks here in northern Ontario. I have a good idea what kinda mess is under that snow. Riding in slash piles in old logging roads ain't very smart. Lucky all ya broke is the tunnel n bumper. I've seen front A arms get ripped off the bulkhead , tracks get punctured by big sticks... Lucky you didn't get punctured by a big old stick or something steel left behind. Remember if you never saw it without snow,,, there could be old tracks off a excavator or something like that left behind by the loggers. Or a log trailer picket eeekkk
These videos are the best Louie ! Shows you ain't no pussy when it comes down to whippin ! Just hope this won't hold you back from riding like you use to !
@Bike Life_93 not much sitting here praying for snow it keeps raining so the snow is going fast Had to swap the raptor and sled around in the garage so I can get to the raptor now👍
Louie this is why we love you bangup the sled and back get back on and repeat before you can get back. Just like the rest of us, heal fast man you took that like a champ!
Burrowed her in like an F-4 Phantom, Louie I spent 6-years working the Phantom. The “lead sled” was truly a great fighter of its time. Burnt the midnight oil keeping her flying.
@chuckbeef burning the midnight oil as in working all night. I wasnt referencing any drug use. In the US Military all illicit drugs are illigal to use including marijuana. Agreed drug use and working on anything isnt advisable. Cheere! Love the vids, keep it up Louie. Love seeing your son out with you. Enjoy them as they grow up waaaaay to fast.
I should pull the trailer hitch off my Assault. It hangs out like 6” further than the OEM bumper, i can feel it whack and drag the ground every time i wheelie it.
Not even close, like not even in the same realm of fun can be had on an elan in comparison to a modern RMK. Think about it, they have no suspension, slow af, no track, no power. But its fun to remember your roots and where the sport came from every once in a while.
Chuck Beef depends on what you're into I guess, I used to race back in the 70s now I just like to putt around in the woods, that come with getting older I suppose
Straighten it out as much as possible, reinforce it if needed, weld up any cracks or stressed parts of the cooler and go hunting for more stumps and I’m amazed you have any pride left to hurt LOL
Beat it back into place and get ripping again lol. Sometimes thats ditch banging for ya. Did something similar last year but it mashed the front down and bashed my chest off riser sore ribbs for couple weeks. Slapped it down so hard that there was no marks in the snow for five feet.
