Today started with loading some good sleds on the trailer along with the crashed one and heading to the dealer. We arrived and set up a rental sled and took the other sleds off the trailer. After heading to Bergland for gas, we took trail 8 West to trail 102 North. Both were in excellent shape. Trail 102 was phenomenal as usual, tons of snow and smooth as glass. We caught up with trail 11 North and rode that into Silver City.
Along the way my Renegade chewed up a belt so we swapped that out and took a few pictures by Lake Superior. We stopped for lunch at Konteka and then made our way back to Bergland. Trail 1 was in decent shape, but could use a quick pass with the groomer. We gassed up again and decided to play around in the 1 to 2 ft of fresh powder on the lake. We didn’t even make it to hoop n holler before my last buddy (the one who hasn’t had any problems this trip) had the motor quit on him. It ended up being a blown piston. We towed that sled to the hoop and left it in the parking lot. Then we rode back to the dealer to drop off the rental sled and get the trailer to pick up the sled at the hoop. Another event filled day!
