    I'm game. Lol. However I'm old and skates and I wouldn't get along. Can we just mount a couple to a sled and have races. We can even sharpen the runners down a tad. :laughing:

    You can definitely tell who the adventurous are and who the cautious are. Lol

    As an old skater/hockey player, that is just plain stupidity at its best. Even I wouldn't do something like that! :loco: :crazy:

    I think we'd spawn a whole new technique for chain sharpening. We want traction instead of cutting efficiency!

    A little shield would be easy enough to put over the bar.

    No, but I once ate raccoon at one... A bow bar guard type shield and a longer bar and you would be all set.

    Hmm I got an 056 super with a 36" bar abd the 6100 with a 24" one for big open tracks and the other for short tight tracks where the fast reving high rpm's could sling shot you out of the corners. Oh this could be fun.

    Small lake just across the street from me, but they drained it for dam work and it doesn't appear that we'll be freezing much of anything this winter.
