My wife and I are avid riders. We ride 2-3 times a week(we live near 40+ miles of trail and ride from the house). She rides a Sportsman 500 and I have a Big Boss 6X6 400 two stroke. I have had mine for about 5 years now. We just picked hers up in the spring of 2000. <P>Up here in Alaska the Riding is very accessable. There are many trail systems. You must get out of Ancorage to ride though. <P>Hey Greyghost,<P> Where did you ride when you were up here? What did you ride? How do you like that H.O. engine? My wifes 500 is a dog compared to my 2 stroke. I was wondering how that H.O. engine runs.<P>6X6
