The 2022 Lynx Rave RE first ride and review draws comparisons between the Ski-Doo X-RS and Arctic Cat RR in the big-bump snowmobile segment. These race-bred sleds feature premium suspension technology that demanding riders desire. Buying a New Sled By the time you read this spring orders for snowmobiles will have been well under way for the big four and by my calculations it should be a … [Read more...] about 2022 Lynx Rave RE First Ride and Review

Ski-Doo Backcountry X-RS 850 vs Renegade X-RS 900 Turbo

In the ongoing quest to review the best snowmobiles and gear here is a detailed report on the Ski-Doo Backcountry X-RS 850 vs Renegade X-RS 900 Turbo  I stopped in to Lemieux Garage in Colebrook NH on Presidents Day weekend and asked what was new and exciting from the brain trust up north in Valcourt, Quebec.

Ski-Doo Introduced First Snowmobile in NH

December 3, 2019 by Midge Rosebrook

Ski-Doo introduced first snowmobile in NH.

This December, a date will come and go as just another mark on the 2019 calendar. A date that should not have slipped away without mention ten years ago but it did. A date that is arguably one of the most important dates in the history of the town of Lancaster, New Hampshire. One that should be celebrated with a parade, a dance, or the very least, front page news in the Coos County … [Read more...] about Ski-Doo Introduced First Snowmobile in NH

Ski-Doo X RS Renegade 900 Ace Turbo Review

March 26, 2019 by Jim Tucker

Ski-Doo X-RS Renegade 900 Ace Turbo Review

On a recent snowmobile trip to the Granite State I was the lucky recipient of an extended demo ride on a 2019 Ski Doo X RS Renegade 900 Ace Turbo for review. Life is good! I've admired the Ace motor tucked into the previous XS chassis when it came out in 2014 but like others I thought that it wasn't quite the complete machine that riders were looking for. Sure, the handling, ride, looks, and … [Read more...] about Ski-Doo X RS Renegade 900 Ace Turbo Review
