Family had a Covid setback. Good news is we all survived! It’s definitely a thing so be careful out there.

Battery back in purring like a cat. Oil leak is getting worse. Slant will need a seal refresh next year or two.

Hoping to get the frame welded on the 53 Wednesday. After that can swap positions and service the cat for winter. Should be routine!

Supply chain has impacted New
England. Waiting on Sno-motivation at the mercy of other ports of entry. (weather or goods).


Hustling what little winter we have 100 miles north!

J Tucker riding lap this year currently. Was informed last week his Sno check youth sled isn’t even being built until end February 1 year later?

Jr on the other hand headed to the limited Sno testing grounds tomorrow with some cheat parts.

Snovid 2022!

If a radiator leaks on the ground and there is no sno to turn green, is it a leak with fixing?

Tucker has been removed from time out. Coolant leak looks like loose hoses so went though and tightened them all.

Front passenger tension bolt backed off last trip. Set the tension back to 1 1/2” center wheel to track hanging the front end.

Also greased the front idlers, carriers, table, pivots. Here I like to suspend the front end and grease in the ground to promote grease too and bottom of loaded pivot points.

Like the idea of the Uhmw sleeve carrier upgrade in life once winter returns on the regular.
