    Perhaps...I did snowmobile as a young man growing up in Minnesota, but having said that, it wasn't exhilarating because Mom was watching....

    It's a lot different now, Steve. Yamaha makes a turbocharged triple four-stroke that makes 200+hp; Ski Doo and Polaris have 850 cc direct-injected two-strokes that make north of 160 hp in 450 lb. machines. You will need $16,000 to experience these machines, however.

    Just the numbers sound like lots of fun!

    What if...
    ...taught 8 experienced riders the Advanced Rider Course today?
    2 full size crotch rockets
    3 medium sized CRs
    2 HD
    1 Honda Shadow cruiser
    All did very well and they all learned something before the day was finished!

    My giant "sippy-cup" (Yeti like thing) is 24oz.
    I compensate using 10oz chilled coke, 10oz bourbon, and top with ice.
    Cheers!
