What must be free, not frozen down, before riding?

The track and skis.

Start playing free

  1. Seat and windshield
  2. Track and skis ✔
  3. Helmet and gloves

Why: Ice can hold the track or skis in place. Free them before trying to move.

Huh, didn't know that: Track tension and ski alignment also belong in the seasonal inspection.

The dad joke
What did the snowmobile say when its track and skis were free? Ready to slide into a great day.
