View Full Version : What do you carry with you?
When out on your vmax 4 (or other sled)?
With me it depends on wether I`m riding localy (which means I`m not likely to be much more than a couple miles from home depending on ROAD conditions. LOL)
Anyway, if I`m up north, I usually carry a full rack of plugs (or how ever many plugs my sled at the time uses)
Cell phone
tools
extra gloves (sometimes)
Matches (or extra lighter)
some sort of flash light
Two way radio`s
Rag
extra light bulbs (should`nt have to worry about these much anymore, thanks to vmax 4.com, and especialy skinner!, I`ll hopefully be all set with having to carry a extra head light bulb ect.) still may keep one handy just incase.
Probley other struff too, just cant think of it right now.
About the same, Plugs, small tool kit, rag....and a camara. too many times fun stuff happens, I have a buddy thats really cocky, we were out riding and he was playing in the ditch..their was about 5ft of snow in their, he slowed down and the sled started to sink, so he pins it......As the ass of the sled is diggging this giant trench he comes to a stop but still keeps it pinned....After alll was done, the sled was basicly straight up and down. It took us a 1/2 hour to dig it out. I snapped acouple pictures and every time he starts talking smack....I just email them to him.:super: :bottom: Just to much funny stuff happens not to have the proof!
