Welcome to our earlier than expected summer special.We kick off with Steve’s new acquisition. A 1972 Moto-Ski mini bike that actually runs! Send us any manuals, parts, or leads on parts so he can properly restore it.Now that the “Cat” is out of the bag, we get into Arctic Cat’s new ownership. Then dive into some Cat history. They’ve been around since 1960 with many changes since.We talked about Cats engines with their new 858 C-tec 2. We speculated that they won’t have a 4 stroke, but found out afterward that Yamaha will continue to supply their 4 stroke triples.Also on Cat we shared some stories about sleds owned by friends, how they looked, and one sleds unfortunate end.No Tech Tips in this episode your sled should be properly put away as we discussed in our last episode.Connect With Ushttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057548599398

Spring Is Here
In what was our Season Finale we share some riding stories and several storage tips.We chat about rides into Saskatchewan, the people we met, and how nice that we share trail passes, too bad Ontario isn't as generous.Steve insisted I leave the blooper at the end of the show in. The blooper at the beginning is all Rob. While this is the end of the season, we plan on dropping the occasional episode through the summer. Then get back into full swing with Season 2 in October. Thanks again for all of the support we’ve gotten after launching Sled Talk! Enjoy the Show!Connect With Ushttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057548599398

E Sleds and Arctic Cat
We talk about the process to sell a company like Arctic Cat then shift to Electric sleds. Who knew how many there are? More than we would have thought. Try one before you roast us. They might have a place for some riders.Trailer maintenance is something we should all do but many ignore. Don't leave your sleds stranded on the side of the road. They may not be there when you get back.Lastly some product info always informative!Connect With Ushttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057548599398
We love to talk all things snowmobiling. We started riding together in the mid 70's and have seen some amazing changes. From pulling the cord to pulling our hair out. We have no shortage of stories to share!Sledding has always been a passion of ours and we want to share some of those stories and experiences with you.Nothing would make us happier than introducing this great sport to new riders or rekindling a lost love by reintroducing snowmobiling to past riders and getting them back on the trails.
