Anybody on here from close to Vancouver that would be up for riding? I am new to sledding but willing to try anything as long as it won't kill me.

if you already have (or willing to get) at least a shovel and a probe . and carry a belt an plugs for your sled then join me on sunday or monday at the coq summit . gps and beacon even better, my beacon is on the way and gps is under the tree . till i ride again.

Already have the shovel and belt and plugs, no probe yet. Going up to Coquihala Lakes this weekend should be a blast.

i am also looking for a riding partner, how old are you? and do you do hillclimb and mountian stuff or jsut lakes trails etc?

i have a 151 summit x as well, i have been riding for about 4 years now and i am very experienced

let me know
thanks

I'm 29 and ride everything. Actually going tomorrow with justdoo-it to Brooksmere up in the mountains, trails and hopefully on the lakes as well if they are frozen. Lakes are fun for a little bit about the only place I am willing to take my sled over 100 MPH. They aren't big lakes but still fun to open her up once in a while. Did some good hillclimbs last couple rides we'll see what happens tomorrow. Trails are trails you have to ride them to get to the fun spots and I don't mind the break sometimes after I have beat myself up. Your welcome to join us in the future but I am the youngest at 29 and the ages range all the way up to 50 with my Dad being the oldest but even at that he is the best rider out of our group and I am betting could keep up to most younger guys out there.

I'm coming to van to do some riding at the end of february.. where can I get a sled ???? & where should I ride????

ontario ? you may not want to leave . call jordie at ski and trail powersports in aldergrove tell him chad sent ya 604-857-1881 great outfit they will get ya on a good sled . as for riding well whistler/pemberton would be a must see if your here for a few days but it can be a gong show, more than a few exits on the coquihalla hwy between hope and merritt that are world class an not nearly as busy . so it depends on what your looking for. yami may have some more info for ya on that . pm if your looking for a ride buddy ill show ya what i know .

pm'd you!

looking for people to ride with as well. usually ride around whistler but would be stoked to ride coq and other places with someone who knows the area. i'm into mtn riding and have been riding 4 or 5 years. got a long track rmk for deep and a short track rev.

Yami where abouts do you live im from North Delta right beside Surrey and have been riding all my life I have recently turned 16 but am a very experienced rider and have my own sled and 800cc 151 and me and my dad go up to almost anywhere including pemberton, whitler and we own a lot down at the glen right beside baker I have been complimented many times on my riding and can go anywhere we should go riding sometime (next year) its a little late lol. but should come with us to baker one time the always looking to ride with new people.

BuMp, you guys still here and interested??? the Coq's getting a dusting

im 18 got a summit xrs 151, riding 4 yrs all mountian for me.
i ride, the coq, pemberton, revelstoke, sicamous...and around there

I'm still here. Justdoo-it Is still around too.

I ride with a group of guys normally about 6-10 of us including JustDoo-it aging from 30s to 50s. All of us ride newer REV Summit 800s or XP Summit 800s and 1 snow hawk. If you are interested in coming with us on a ride then you are welcome to join us. But we ride everything from trails, lakes, to wide open powder areas, to hill climbs. If you just want to go do hill climbs only then you may not enjoy riding with us. We also like our beer and will stop ever so often to enjoy a beer or two.

wow cool, big group! wheres your first ride usaully?? im looking to get out earlier than early dec but i still want some snow, lol if thats possible where do you all go?

We ride the Coq, around Merrit, Princeton, Tuelameen, Whistler, and are planning a trip up to Anaheim Lake later in the spring of 09.
First ride will probably be up to the Coq. depends on the weather.

Has anyone gone out yet? was out at wipsaw yesterday and there's NO SNOW !

Nope. If the Coq doesn't have snowthen no way Wipsaw will. I think the only place to go right now for a day trip would be Whistler.
