  • Playing in the snow around the yard

    Had both machines out around the yard a couple days ago. Just finished doing their Winter Service and had to play around a bit when I was done.
    Wow is there ever a difference between the 2 machines, even though they are both Conquests. Mine with the bigger tires and motor is quite a bit more willing to climb and spin around, but the kids machine is still a bit faster.

    Not so patiently awaiting my new Adair Tracks............Should be a blast this winter.

        These clips were taken with a VIO POV1. Nice unit, and very easy to use.

          Giving the machines the torture test Looks like they are ready to do the trails. Great videos RD.
          Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways , cigar in one hand, whiskey in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!!"

              Yes, they both seem to be ready for the winter, looking forward to doing some Ice Fishing, .

              4-5 inches of snow is pretty minor, and I was happily suprised at how well the kids machine was doing with Runamuck Tires on. Should have a set of Adair Tracks on that machine on my next set of "Days Off". I'm thinking I could really have problems keeping up to the kids once those tracks are installed, they will just be that much faster.

                keep us posted on the tracks RD! It may even be cool to see the install, or a bunch of clips of how they go on. It would be funny if you had to repo the tracked argo from the kids, like my dad used to tell us kids (and still does), "anyone that beats me needs to walk home, remember, respect your elders" LOL very nice video!!!

                  I think I am more excited about spring than you are. I cannot wait to see what a conquest with 22" runamucks and Adair tracks will do in the mud and Muskege you run your machines in. There will be no need to go down the side anymore, straight down the middle of the nasty areas please! Say your stuck? Nawww, just back off the throttle and lean a little to the left or right. Spring cannot come soon enough!

                          Talked to my wife this evening, sounds like my Adair Tracks have arrived. Now I just need to think of a reason to go to town ( or get sent to town ). If I can get into town on Sunday night, I could pick them up Monday morning, and start assembling them in the evening, after work......hmmmm.
