BCthetwo I love my gade, you just have to dip a little more when it is hardpack,and who wants to stay on the trail all the time anyways :D The renegade is perfect for Ontario applications. 156km to this snow destination :D

The only thing missing from these pics is me :(

Last weekend I went and trailered up to hiway 11 at nipicon turn off, and unloaded at a way side rest area and rode to berdmore and back and there was 3 feet of snow there. I am going to invest in a digi camara so I could post this .But that looks good there too . :D

These are some pics from last weekend in a sand pit area by my buddy's cottage.

We are going to try to smooth out the transition at the bottom of the hill, it is so steep right now you have to roll up to it and almost stop and then gas it to make it up and hit the lip at the top.

The first run it hit the thing doing about 40 and it didn't work out so well.

with the bottom of the hill fixed this will be an awesome jump, there is a landing area about the size of a football field at the top.

I am going to get some video with my helmet cam the next time I am up and try for some really big air.

Right now we are hitting the top at about 35km/h, I wanna try hitting it at about 70-80

Nice looking pic`s,except too much yellow and black.The Rev
is starting to grow on me though.After seeing the 600 run neck
and neck with the 800 rev ,both were stock with about 150+ miles
on.I was impressed.

Nothing to get uptight about bud that is what happens when a gade trys to catch a REV. They are taking off clothing to save weight. 7 LBS = 1 Hp. :) :D SWRules

Hey Panteraone, what are the trails like in Cochrane? Still not to good in Timmins, just started grooming! Should have started at least a week ago, here's my wife and dad and I out for a spin. Good ride except the recoil broke on the Gade, fixed everything good again!

;) Riding behind a Gade is like being in a badass snowball fight that you cant win :nervous:

Hey 800xrev, That's the plan pretty sure I'll be unloading the Gade for another rev, hopefully they will have a rev-gade style.
Hey Panteraone, do your shifts give you every second weekend off if so are you off on this weekend or are you working? If your working were on the same schedule, if not it will be hard to hook up this season ???

PANTERAONE
12-14-2002, 05:04 PM
hi kenny,yep working this weekend,im off every 2nd weekend..looks like we could hook up sometime this season :p
