more than enough snow now - we were doing huge distance at speeds over 100mph on those trails today.

sooo much fun in the snow.

Being originally from Minnesota, I really miss sledding. Nothing like doing 130mph down a straight away. BTW, never do that on a lake. You don't want to learn what a preasure ridge is the hard way.

Looks like a lot of fun. I ride motorcycyles but I've never had a chance to go snowmobiling.

wow... those wide-open places look other worldy. Awesome.

Groomed trails? Damn Sleazy that's like swimming in a pool.

I wish I had weather like that. I am in Jersey and there is no snow to play in.

That's pretty cool - we don't have such barren wastelands in Jersey.

I spent the day on a plane.

nice pics. i'd love to ride one of those things.

Nice pics. I've been in Michigan for about a month now and have only got to go riding twice. It keeps raining and shit. :helpme

That's cool, we're you out on a lake?

DH

Nice pics. Looks like tons of fun. I can't wait to get me a snowmobile.

lake winnipeg - went about 10 miles out. next time we'll cross it

That looks like a ton of fun! Of course, being in San Diego I don't get much snow, but I love it anyhow!!

A Sleazy snowmobile thread with no injuries?

Stunning landscape. I could get lost out there just absorbing the beauty. Nothing like nature. I got to get myself out there and ride some one of these days.. :)

135 on snow, wow... I've found a new heroin. Always did want to open one of these up.

wow that looks like a good time

Nice pictures, damn I would love to do that! :)

Those are amazing pics Sleazy! :thumbsup

I haven't tried snow mobiles yet but after seeing how much fun you have I am definately looking forward to winter here! :D

Nah.. Ill take Thrill craft on Hawaiian water anyday over that bleek hell.

Very COOL Sleazy
 

That looks like a hell of a ride Scotty. I remember the old days skating on Lake Winnipeg. Never did get up to that speed. :flagface

the same as the desert at Burningman but cooler............hey sleazy i wanna ride!!!! *weg*

I have two Polaris snowmobiles myself. I live right across the street (300 feet or so) from the snowmobile trails here in Michigan. I can jump on my sled and ride all the way to the UP and cross the bridge and ride up there, all right from my house in central michigan. Sledding is a blast!! If you are looking for good snowmobile gear look into Choko brand clothing too, warmest stuff I have seen yet.

Its the only thing that keeps winter fun. Unfortunately its going to be 40 or so here today so the snow will be melting.

how can you live in that hell scape?

Nice pics. I have 5 fucking miles on my new sled because the weather just so happens to be "unseasonably warm". We are supposed to get hit this weekend. Just in time for the Sled Fest Poker Run.

Ride safe.

wouldn't it be healthier to take up actual skiing? probably not as much fun though

Hey Sleazy Dan and I picked up a few snowmobiles just before Christmas this year. Brand new first time ever used. WOW those suckers are fast.

We were on those babies 6-8 hours everyday morning night or pitch black doesnt matter.

Dan has ATV's also but snowmobiles are way way way faster, the need for speed is definately taken care of with a snowmobile.

it's funny. do you like any snow sport's like snowbording, skiing, snowmobiling or something like this? I do. Also i tired to live in hot climate!

where is it , SleazyDream?

i have snowmobile too ;)

snowmobiles rock...unelss you run out of gas..i knew a guy that froze ot death after his did ..

freezing to death must suck.

With the right gear you sweat like hell no matter how cold it is.

Talk about wide open spaces!

hehe Sleazy never gets injured, only his newbie guests. ;)

I love sledding to those Arctic like places!! It so cool!

Sleazy,

I bought an elliptical excercise machine yesterday. Would you like to challenge me to be GFY's "Biggest Loser"? We could both start working out for the next 3-6 months and see who loses the highest percentage of weight and body fat, just like they did on the TV show.

We could open this up to any webmaster wanted to participate. Sponsors could be found. We could all fly to Seattle or something and have our measurements taken.

Whadda ya say?

(This has a lot to do with snowmobiling, eh?)

Damn that looks like tones of fun Sleazy. Can't wait to join you this winter for a few days of fun!
