Me and Trooper took off from the Pole Barn trip on late Tuesday afternoon
and met up with his brother in Lewiston at Garlands Golf resort.
Which are Now snowmobiler friendly! :thumbsup: Anyway the Big deal for
me was I got to ride Barts...Troopers brothers 2002 Blade!
Bart (RV KING) a new member coming soon...Let be take her for
a spin on tuesday night over to Lovell's and again on Weds.
That SleD was to coolest thing I have ever ridden. She just
burned threw the corners w/ no issuse. I have never ever ridden
a SLeD that handles and corners as well as that Blade did!
On the second day I was hammering threw the corners
I couldn't lift a Ski if I tried to! :thumbsup: Could a Blade be in the
future for SLeDHeaD time will only tell! Here are a few pics
from my bonus adventure! Thanks to Trooper and Rv King for
making this event happen for me! -Dave

P.S It also was a pleasure to ride with Mike... Barts son who is BTW 15! :thumbsup:

The Blade isn't the prettiest sled out there but is 100% practical in every design area, to bad they still aren't much of an impact on the sled industry. Lewiston looks in good shape, thats where I my snowmobile roots started to grow as I would ride to there from Atlanta on a 77 Colt :thumbsup:

Right, everything is practical but the price :slick: Comparing now to then maybe the prices weren't to far outta line.

Sure you can now, its 5 yr old tech now :whatever:, and parts arn't available every 30 miles like the big 4. Still a fun sled though.

The Blade is 5 year old tech that was 7 years ahead of time !!! Polaris motor parts are available every 30 miles .The only way you could break anything else on THE BLADE
is by crashing it. I have ridden trail sleds for 28 years and NOTHING gos thur the woods like a BLADE. :thumbsup:
