Greetings and Salutations,
* * I heard about this site at another forum and thought I'd check it out. I noticed that new members post an intro so I thought I'd follow suit. I live in da state of Mini-soda, and been ridin dem beels for a long cotton pickin time don't ya know. * http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif * I've owned 9 new cats since 87, Tigers, Wildcats, EXT's, ZR and ZRT's. *In 1995 I think I got mad cow disease and bought an XCR 600 ( hangin head) thank God I recovered. I currently ride and own a 96 ZRT 600, 97 ZRT 600 LT, a 99 ZRT 600 and an 02 ZRT 600. *OMG...I think I see a pattern!...Nope..the 99 is green..wheeewww. *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif *I mostly ride the groomed trails on MN, WI and the Yuper. I have dabbled in racing and some mods but for the most part I ride FLMS stockers on the trail ( dat was a mini-soda polaris yoke) *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/devil.gif *So..anyways..CHEERS!!

Hello there & hope you enjoy the fun & frivolity here http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif Nobody here takes anything too seriously except for their sledding. We've had a few new members the last couple of days, this is good as it was getting a bit quiet.

You may want to go to the Yammi forum as the diehards there are dying of boredom http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif Oh I forgot they're thinking back to their rides this winter http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Can the FLMS be explained in public? If not send me a PM. Co-workers & I who don't ride Polarii, refer to the XLTs as BLTs

Finally, if you're good, LadyK may send you a cupcake http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

Wolfman,
* I can't remember what you do for a living that it keeps you from moving to the snow life. You've said you won't make as much in the great snowey north if you moved.

Welcome purple Zirt. I also think the cat 600 sound the best. I have had two 96 zrt600's and now hav a 99 zrt600, with the following. Blck magic mono block head sleeper kit, withv-force reeds, D&D pipes and clutch kit, power breather, gearing, dial adjust front shock, digitron gauges, 192 studs, I have a set o bored (39.5) carbs but am taking them off, as I ridemostly in the oods and don't see much advantage with them. Mineis alos green with a green zr seat also. This year the sled will probably sit a little more as I have a zr900 on order and have a basement full of goodies already. Kevin

I monitor the nationwide (former GTE) phone switch network for Verizon telecommunications.

The job is about as much of a cakewalk as one can get, and I get paid well over $20/hr to do it. *I could get a job working in a central office, but that would have me working overnight hours, and I don&#39;t get along well with those kinds of hours.

My other anchor is my house. *It was not liveable when I bought it as the previous owner ran a dog pound out of the place - letting the dogs literally shred the place. *It is in much better shape now, but it still scares people with no floors over the concrete pad, and still needing large amounts of exterior work before I can even begin to paint the place. *Funding to complete the work has been a barrier, not to mention free time. *It is going to cost me several thousand dollars to put a floor down. *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

I am also very close to vesting a pension with my current employer, so I must get to that point before I do anything serious in the regards to relocating.

Some things just take time, and I&#39;ll likely get the opportunity to move north sometime in the not too distant future, all I can do right now is wait................

No offence to the folks from Minnesota, but is there any basis to Hollywood&#39;s version of the dialect spoken there? At least us Canucks just say "eh" http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I&#39;ve been in Minnesota 3 times and never noticed anything different.

Hoser uniform:

1 Ski-doo toque

1 Kenora dinner jacket/Sudbury sport coat/Timmins tuxedo *To you Yanks, the commonplace red & black lumberjack shirt.

1 pair of Levis worn normally, no tears (this was before Joe Elliott of Def Leppard) or too baggy, just tucked into the top of your boots

1 pair Kodiak work boots (laces undone)

http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I can remember in high school in Oshawa when I think everyone was wearing this. Maybe the school boards should mandate this as the Ontario school uniform.

No more do rags, hats on backwards/sideways, baggypants/shorts hanging down to your crotch, underwear showing nonsense like nowadays *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif

I won&#39;t give the long winded response that I gave the other newbie, but he was a local boy(local to my location).
Glad to see up to snuff on sled choice.
