Ross Spoonland of Pine River, North Dakota, purchased this 2010 Arctic Cat Z1 Turbo EXT in late November (2009) from Hamm’s Repair, the Arctic Cat dealer in Warren, MN. His first ride on it was during the last week of December. His last ride… the first week of March 2010.
In-between, Ross notched 7,250 miles, including one 658-mile day on Feb 26 (read THIS STORY about it from the Grand Forks Herald).
Logging more miles in 10 weeks than many “hardcore” riders log in 5 years is pretty impressive, so I asked him a few questions:
AI: What do you think about your Z1 EXT?
Spoonland: I really like this machine… especially the power, handling and ride. I also have a 2008 Crossfire 800 that I put 9,476 miles on in the two previous seasons, but I didn’t ride it all this season as the Z1 was too much fun to ride!
AI: Any modifications to the EXT?
Spoonland: I added some accessories: Woody’s Gold Digger studs, dually 8-in. carbides, front bumper, running board grip plates, tall windshield, tunnel rack, tunnel mat, tunnel bag, ice scratchers and an aftermarket remote start (Astrostart RS-711XR). I also have a Garmin GPSMAP 276c and a SPOT Satellite Messenger mounted on my machine.
AI: Any advice for riders who want to go 600-plus miles in a day?
Spoonland: Here’s a couple of things I’d suggest: a route that has gas available after-hours (some remote areas do not have credit card pumps); clear sunny day for snow definition/visibility; late week ride days (Thursday/Friday) offer a better chance of freshly groomed trails and less traffic; watch the forecast for a day with little wind (no use riding 600 miles on blown-in, bumpy trails); and as before any ride, make sure sled is maintained and ready to go.
AI: Any plans for big rides this next season?
Spoonland: I have already laid out a preliminary 1500 km, one-day ride through North Dakota, Minnesota, Ontario and Manitoba. Plus I plan to do a lot of 250-300 mile day rides as in past years.
arent you afraid of blowin up your engine

fredUpon further rdnaieg of the release notes () I found something that seem to apply here or have I got it all backwards?! Prefix- and range-based MAC address allocation is supported only in vCenter Server 5.1 and ESXi 5.1. If you add pre-5.1 hosts to vCenter Server 5.1, and use anything other than VMware OUI prefix- or range-based MAC address allocation, virtual machines assigned MAC addresses that are not VMware OUI prefixed fail to power on their pre-5.1 hosts. I might have to rethink my approach revert back to esx 5.0 and try to correct the misbehaving vm (it is an Ubuntu with misconfigured Samba that won’t boot unless the expected MAC address is used)? http://xeecsmas.com [url=http://qecraj.com]qecraj[/url] [link=http://erwposva.com]erwposva[/link]

Being able to handle people’s problem efficiently and effectively is a thing worth gratitude in every ramification. What SKY CREDIT SOLUTION did for I and my family is immeasurable, I had a very poor FICO of 510, I had a repo, student loans, evictions and a couple of late payments. After my niece convinced me I contacted SCS and they boosted my FICO to 790 and removed all evictions, late payments and repo. I know how unbelievable this may sound but they actually gave me a reason to be happy again. If you would like to engage their services Text (620) 399 6316 or Email SKYCREDITSOLUTION247@GMAIL.COM. They are the best and surest means of getting your credit fixed. Tell them Noah told you so
Here is how I got my FICO score to 785 from as low as 400, due to my diabetic condition I got a setback on my payments owing to medical bills, my world started falling apart because I wanted to rent a home and take some loans and I couldn’t. I kept looking for someone who could help fix my credit to no avail, until October last year when I met SKY CREDIT SOLUTION through a friend whom they had worked for. They boosted my credit in 9 days and restored my dignity. I was able to get a loan and pay for a home. You can contact them via SKYCREDITSOLUTION247@GMAIL.COM / (620) 399 6316..
