  • Vintage Classic Antique Oh My
    Oct 29 2025

    We started out trying to define vintage sleds. This is a topic we want to hear from you on.

    The first ever Turtle Mountain grass drags (both sleds were evenly matched), slider lube, and the hazards of hay bales on the strip. What could happen for future events.

    We cover a concerning topic. Trail closures are happening across Ontario for several reasons, but as always funding plays a big role.

    Ste. Agathe announced a new warm up shack after the summer forest fires destroyed the original shack. They have a fantastic trail system the ends in Woodridge connecting to the South East Snow Riders trail system. Add this to your list of rides this season!

    Tech Tips cover cylinder compression. Don’t let bad compression lead to sled depression. Do your homework before buying. Even as a preseason check it’s a good idea.

    What was he thinking? A club president was asking poorly. If your club doesn’t have an AGM, HAVE ONE! We have an update from Winters Coming on the guy who killed the wolf. If you didn’t hear about that go back to that episode to check it out.

  • Give Thanks For Snowmobiling
    Oct 15 2025

    Because everything after Thanksgiving is a little stretched, we felt we best keep with the times.

    We cover a lot of ground in this episode. Starting with the great debate. Which manufacturer is the best….. We even talked about manufacturers who were ahead of their time and many that are long past.

    In Tech Tips we go comfortably into suspensions from inspection to set ups.

    The conversation goes into new tech and to riders getting ripped off by trusted professionals.

    You won’t want to miss a second!

  • The Cat Came Back
    Apr 29 2025

    Welcome to our earlier than expected summer special.

    We kick off with Steve’s new acquisition. A 1972 Moto-Ski mini bike that actually runs! Send us any manuals, parts, or leads on parts so he can properly restore it.

    Now that the “Cat” is out of the bag, we get into Arctic Cat’s new ownership. Then dive into some Cat history. They’ve been around since 1960 with many changes since.

    We talked about Cats engines with their new 858 C-tec 2. We speculated that they won’t have a 4 stroke, but found out afterward that Yamaha will continue to supply their 4 stroke triples.

    Also on Cat we shared some stories about sleds owned by friends, how they looked, and one sleds unfortunate end.

    No Tech Tips in this episode your sled should be properly put away as we discussed in our last episode.

  • Spring Is Here
    Apr 16 2025

    In what was our Season Finale we share some riding stories and several storage tips.

    We chat about rides into Saskatchewan, the people we met, and how nice that we share trail passes, too bad Ontario isn't as generous.

    Steve insisted I leave the blooper at the end of the show in. The blooper at the beginning is all Rob.

    While this is the end of the season, we plan on dropping the occasional episode through the summer. Then get back into full swing with Season 2 in October.

    Thanks again for all of the support we’ve gotten after launching Sled Talk!

    Enjoy the Show!

  • Stories from the Snowbank
    Apr 2 2025

    Over the 30 + years we've been riding there have been quite a few remarkable moments.

    While we laugh now, in some cases we didn't laugh then.....well some of us didn't. Some people in our group found these situations hilarious. That joy usually added to the misery.

    We've shared a few of those stories in this episode.

    Enjoy our misery!
