Yup ! a great read Keith. Ever thought of tourism as a pass time. Getting gangs to go sleddin up North with you. Hmm sounds like a fun winter distraction.
I rode a lot of the trails you wrote about 2 years ago with Gary/Bosscat Tours. We based out of Kikland Lake and rode loop rides each day-we were hoping to go last year, but Gary said snow conditions were preety poor-instead we rode in the Lake Effect NY Southern Tier (had my friend Zeke from snowmobileworld.com come down).
Last June at the International Snowmobile Congress in Minneapolis, I taped a promo spot with VideoMike and SnowTrails TV. Someone told me they saw it on a Detroit PBS station already. I did the Ride New York Message.
