Rob goes off on how many people have been killed or seriously injured this season. The stats he collected were from early January 2026 and far from complete yet very concerning. Then he and Steve get into an interesting community event in Elliot Lake ON. The town hall held a safety training course run by the OPP and made it an event with food, fun, and prizes.

They both get into suspension service and how critical keeping an eye on your skid before, during, and after the season can change the quality of your riding all winter.

Do you ride with people that put rules or restrictions on who can ride with them? Often, they make sense for the type of riding that group is doing. Share the rules and why they are in place.

Wolf guy is in the news again and he continues to disgust us. https://wyofile.com/wolf-torment-defendant-cody-roberts-wants-animal-cruelty-case-tossed/

Do you need parts drop shipped to your Sled Cave? When you do, get in touch with Steve. He’ll expedite those parts and get you back on the snow ASAP.

We try to be accurate when sharing news or telling a story, but sometimes we slip up. We’re fine with being corrected and will adjust as necessary. Free February from Season 1 Episode 2 is an example of an oops. Trail passes are always required in Manitoba.

Everyone has a Sled Cave that they are proud to work in. Cool caves usually attract a few more buddies to help work on your project or at least make sure the beer doesn’t get stale. We’d love to see pictures of yours.

BRP (Skidoo)makes a large donation to Ride Out Intimidation. It’s their way to shine a light on being bullied. They call it Yellow Day. It’s a good cause.

Safety has been a theme this season. We continue to talk about safety because people keep getting hurt, and worse, dying. Try to think before you go out.

The Yahoo’s are prominent in What Was He Thinking. The OPP caught some dumb asses shooting up the area around Muskoka. These guys were so stupid they actually posted video’s.

Steve has a great Tech Tip on JIS screw drivers.

We dive into exhaust systems and focus on can’s. Many people make changes to their exhaust systems, but are they doing enough to ensure their engine won’t flame out. Are rice cakes a better performance enhancer than a cheap exhaust can? Steve asks what’s more important performance, volume, or sore ears?

Sled people are usually some type of motorhead. Very seldom do you know a guy that only has a sled with no other toys. We’re both guilty of having all kinds of toys. We kick off the show talking about the roadster Rob recently bought and drove halfway across Canada desperately trying to beat the snow.

We jump over to Taiga’s announcement of international distribution of their Nomad electric sled. Is electric the way of the future? We break down the value of having an electric sled.

Have you ever ridden across a floating sled bridge? They have one on Muskoka Ontario. It sounds like a great idea, is it feasible in more areas?

In Estevan Saskatchewan they are organizing their second monster ride. Their first was over 2000 Km’s, this year they plan on going much further.

Do you have a favorite restaurant to stop in while out on a ride? Nobody wants a crappy hamburger when they’re out for a full day of riding. Tell us about the best spots to go and why they make your mouth water.

Steve continues his threat to organize a vintage derby, or just a vintage ride. Give us your thoughts for this type of ride. We would also like to hear about any vintage rides that are going on.

Steve has a great tech tip on steering systems, specifically carbide wear bars, sizes, and how they can have a positive effect on the control you have on your sled. They can even play a part in how you set up your rear suspension.
