So this is my first time with iMovie on the iPad. It's got some rough edits and I still need to learn the audio controls.
We were lucky enough to have a day that the trails could not have been more perfect. Our first 40 miles were groomed, untracked, tabletops. It was amazing. The Forest Riders and Nevis Trailblazers did a great job. Not to mention that you could smell the bacon when you pulled into the lot at the Stompin' Grounds for lunch!Mark Lawsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04855527830414147466noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195483663440211134.post-46116143519035564322013-03-25T11:43:00.002-07:002013-03-25T11:43:33.239-07:00Anna and Alyssa, March 24, 203<object width="560" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/tsJNdTe-S10?version=3&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/tsJNdTe-S10?version=3&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>Mark Lawsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04855527830414147466noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195483663440211134.post-53000408162334606182013-03-02T17:34:00.001-08:002013-03-02T17:34:38.347-08:00Macy and Alyssa in the Woods<object width="560" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/r9u9PIJOmvA?version=3&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/r9u9PIJOmvA?version=3&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>
Macy and Alyssa got their chance to rip up the woods. We dropped at Charlie's on 34 and buzzed up towards Ice Crackin' resort. We got cut short today, but plan on ripping it up tomorrow again.

Yup, this is what a person does when they are made up of Half Geek and Half Snowmobiler and there is no snow on the ground.
You pull out your inner McGyver and create a Tekvest mounted GooseNeck camcorder mount! WOO WOO!! I'm gonna be filming Burandt style!! To all you non sledders, google Chris Burandt

So I have one ram mount on the chin of my helmet and one on by back.

So Macy got the chance to break in the new helmet. If you got our New Year's Card, you saw this photo.
She was jacked to be sporting the new brain bucket! Even more excited to be riding.

For those that were worried about our big sub from last year.

Now I can roll it out in the driveway and do the spring cleanup. For now, the skid is in and track aligned. <br />
<br />
Tell you what, installing an Apex skid alone is a royal pain. Thanks go to Michelle and Dave for a helping hand when needed.<br />

<br />
Ron and I put on 91.5 miles from Elbow Lake Store, to Pinehurst for lunch and over to Itasca State Park. We figured this may be the last day this season with an upcoming weeks forecast above 50 if not 60 degrees!!<br />
<br />
The snow was amazing and the trails a blast! I hope this is not the end, but reality may just slap us in the face next week!<br />

Oh, and one wire harness to disconnect the headlight. But once you got the hood off, you could literally crawl in the engine from all angles.<br />
<br />
After doing a ski alignment Monday night, I noticed the Apex needed some new bushings and nylon washers on the A-arms to take away a little slop. Just so happens you have to remove the guage pod, 3 body panels, the airbox, the battery, battery box and a nest of wires to reach the nuts on the backside of the bulkhead to remove the A-arms. WOW!<br />
<br />
PS: I found the oil filter down in there too, maybe I will do my own oil change next spring! I didn't put enough miles on this year to justify it.<br />
<br />
I'm just happy it was just bushings and not a broken bulkhead! I hear that requires a bit more time and an air rivet tool to replace 58 rivets!!<br />

Just so happened that Macy and I were watching the end of an Addams Family movie. And I mentioned she looked like Cousin IT.<br />

Sounds like a solution in the making.<br />
<br />
After testing a couple fixtures and bulbs that would work in the 45 degree temp we keep the garage, I invested in 7 with 6500k Daylight bulbs! Here is how it turned out!<br />

<br />

<br />
Macy finally got the chance to ride both the four-stroke sleds and she realizes that there is not a "better" one, they are both fun to ride! You will see that it took a few passes, but her last jump she got the sled off the ground! (if only an inch or two) <br />
<br />
You get that many kids all in the same place, you will see progression. All the way from the 3 year old on the Polaris to the teenager on the Arctic Cat. They were all watching each other and learning.<br />
<br />
Can't wait for more snow to come!

<br />
The four of us took off from Detroit Lakes after 6:30pm and got to just south of Ear Falls, Ontario around 3am! By the time we got all the gear boggined back to the cabin is was 6am.<br />
<br />
Sorry I didn't get more video of the sledding as it was amazing!!<br />
