Well, another season has vanished like a snowflake in the desert. Once again, some of the sled community gathered one last time this season to select treasures for next year's projects. The enthusiasts managed to put a lot of miles on their vintage snowmobiles this year due to amazing snow conditions. It really revitalized the sledding urges. Thank you all for another great season. Can't wait to hear your repair stories in the fall.
Gates.

Just an FYI. Retrosledz has brought in two truckloads of Rotax, Kholer and Kawasaki engine parts this week. Thank you

Greetings vintage snowmobile rescuers. Just a note to say that Saturday March 7 will be our last day of operation until next fall. The Maples are tapped and geese are flying overhead once again. What a beautiful sledding season we have had so far. Hopefully you can make a few more tracks before it's over. See you next Saturday for any end of season needs. Gates.

Greetings vintage snowmobile jockeys. What a winter we are having. All of this snow is fantastic for our common passion, and it certainly has been chilly. This post is just to advise you that the shop will be open Saturday Jan. 31 and closing for a few weeks, to reopen Saturday Feb 21. I hope you are all enjoying this fresh powder. What a bonus for our hobby. Please ride safely and I look forward to hearing all of your sledding stories.

Hello vintage sled builders. Sledding season is almost upon us. Delta has experienced a few days of frost, and the woodstove has been burning for a few weeks now. As usual, I have spent the summer scouring the countryside for sleds and parts and have amassed more vintage treasures. There will also be a load arriving on opening day. Thank you Heather, Dan, Tyler, Christopher, Ashley , David, Aaron, Justin, Ken, Les, James, Louise and Matt for passing on your old iron to us. Join us everybody on November 1st for our opening day of the season. As usual there will be free coffee and muffins for all. As mentioned in an earlier post, the swap meet will be held later in the year and NOT on opening day. Get your wrenches and manuals ready for another fun filled sledding season. If there is as much snow as last year, we should be ramping up for a busy vintage snowmobile year.
Gates.

Hello vintage snowmobile diehards. Thank you for all of the input from the last Retrosledz post. Here are some updates. The official date of our opening day will be November 1st as to not conflict with the Eganville show. We have gathered some very neat items this year and will post photos of them next month. Please also note that we did get some vendor intetest but I have decided NOT go do the swap meet on opening day but will do it at a later time. All information will be posted closer to the date. I hope everyone has had a restful summer because the white stuff is just around the corner.

Hello off season vintage snowmobile gladiators. The Retrosledz season is slowly approaching and we have been busy gathering inventory and cleaning the yard for another year. More info about opening day will be posted later this month.

At this time, I am reaching out for some input. I am thinking of adding a swap meet aspect to our opening day. Just a one -time thing. There would be no cost to register and all proceeds of sales would go to the vendor. In other words, Retrosledz would offer you limited space for you to sell your vintage snowmobile items at no cost. This would give sledders access to more parts to kick off the season. More details would be provided if there is enough interest. I would be looking for 10 paticipants. The swap meet would be for selling vintage sleds and parts only. I would apreciate your input on the following two items.

1. Does this interest you as a customer.

2. Would you be interested in participating as a vendor.

Thank you in advance for any input. Much apreciated.
Gates.

What a great way to wind up the Retrosledz season. There was a literal buzz at the Retrosledz shop last Saturday. The vintage sledding community never ceases to amaze me. You came from far and wide including places like Renfrew, Arnprior, Jasper, Brockville, Toledo, Newmarket, Sealeys Bay, Massena, Cornwall, North Gower, Ottawa and Smiths Falls. There were also a few new faces and I never got to ask where you were from. It was a real family day as well. We had three brothers drop in, one patron brought his daughter, one enthusiast brought his father and there were two cousins that made an appearance. You all have one thing in common. You like to laugh, you don't take yourselves too seriously and you all play a part in reviving Canadian history by keeping old sleds going that otherwise may have been scrapped years ago. It was a great day and you are all a pleasure to deal with. I once again turn my efforts to gathering more vintage inventory for the upcoming season. Stay safe and thank you all.
Gates.

Hello vintage sledders. Looks like mother nature is trying to tell us something 😔. Saturday March 8 will be the last day of operation at the shop for this this sledding season. Things are ramping up at the sugar shack and it's time for me to switch gears. Looking forward to seeing you Saturday for any end-of-season items you may need.
Thank you.
Gates.
