Sled head

In an effort to survive the brutal conditions of winter I finally broke down and bought a sled. I will not lie to you, they are not practical. They are however, essential to my having fun in the winter along with ice-fishing. I am also posting a few pictures of Roy's sled which unfortunately is toast. After working several weeks on his XLT I decided to buy my XC 700. On the day I bought mine Roy crashed his into a tree fives miles into the ride. We spent the evening getting it back to shape. The next day after a wonderful rail ride his XLT threw a rod and we were done. Currently he is parting it out to sell on Craig's list. I hope you enjoy the pics. It has been a wild Minnesota weekend.

Results of Roy's crash

On the trail, both sleds (post Roy's crash and evening of repair).


This is what you do in Minnesota in the winter:

Looking good, except for the crash. Watch out for sink holes, tree stumps, and old people.
