Looking for people to ride with that don't mind someone relatively new. Ive been out a half dozen times this season already and in some deep snow. I do ok but need work on side hilling.

I have an anvy pack and picking up a beacon and the rest of what I need next week. Im also doing an avalanche safety course this weekend.

The group I started riding with I ended up slowing down too much and cant ride with them enough to actually get good at this sport.

I am in the Idaho falls Rexburg area.

If no one wants me to tag along I understand. I really don't want to go back to just snowboarding.

I'll pm you and go ride sometime.


Yeah I rode with the IF club yesterday and a great bunch of people.
I however want to ride more times than they do on club rides.

Always happy to make new riding friends.
Been a horrible season for me so far with sled build issues, but hope to have that resolved very soon now. Once that is behind me would be more than happy to ride with new guys in our area.

I am a bit shocked at reading about guys riding alone. Please, find someone to ride with. A ride alone just isn't worth the potential life threatening situations that you could get into without having at least one other person with you. Not preaching, just hate to see someone get caught in a bad situation. Hope ya'all find people to ride with.

I ride alone about 25% of the time. Main reason is it only takes me 5-10 minutes to get to the parking lot and my work schedule is flexible. If the snow is awesome and the sun comes out I'm going riding. I might only be up there for an hour or two but its always worth it. I also like to go alone when I want to do testing. I may be changing clutches or weights or shocks and I dont want to do these kind of things when were riding on the weekend.
You just be smart about what your doing and where you are riding and never get farther away from the truck then you can walk out Eric

I prefer to ride alone. No waiting, no wondering where they are and no stiff neck looking around for the other rider(s). I can go where I want, when I want and go home when I want. I live by seven words; you're born, **** happens then you die.

Yeah I have contemplated riding by myself and only done it once on trail. Off trail its just not worth getting stuck or worse buried and having no one there.

Found people to ride with but always looking for more. I am looking mostly for people in the South East Idaho area, I am committed to this sport and want to ride allot, that are closer to me.

Ive been riding allot and much better at riding, I can hold my own now.
