    Storm Central: Friday 1-12-24

    Just stay west of highway 12. Northern Dane is mostly all open fields. I got some more riding the last 2 days. I rode Marquette and Columbia county on Monday. My boy(4 1/2) did awesome with the cold temps. We bought him heated gloves, which really helped. I rode mostly Columbia county and a...

    Waushara County

    You'll be around my area. We rode them on Monday. Nothing groomed, but plenty of good snow and trails! Northern Columbia county was groomed. That is a nice section of wooded areas. Back to work today. but racked up 350 miles of local riding the last couple days.

    Now can the Pack please beat Dallas?

    That was a fun one! Love played outstanding! They played loose all game. Life's good! My weekend isn't over. I'm keeping my boy out of school tomorrow to go riding. Teacher asks if due to cold temps. I respond yes🤣

    Storm Central: Friday 1-12-24

    Sleds were out yesterday! We rode in Columbia county. Lot of families out yesterday. Lot of smiles talking to riders at stops. Surprisingly there wasn't too many wet spots that we encountered. Winter finally arrived here😁 sorry for the others that didn't get the predicted snow. At least there...

    Probably another 7" in North Columbia county. My boy already has 15-20 miles on the 120 today. Deep in the field! Trails opened at 3! Various S, WI counties are starting to open.

    Trailer padlocks

    I've had the same trimax hockey puck locks for 13 years. I have 3 keyed alike. They've been trouble free! Never have seen salt either.

    Storm Central for Tuesday

    Buddy in Middleton said 6" so far. Portage is 5" right now, and it's coming down. It really picked up the last 2 hours. :)

    Trail openings

    Talked to a white thunder member today. Hurley has 5" and out panning today. Tough to say for 13th based on forecast right now though.

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    I'm usually unable to take trips in December due to family obligations. My first trip is always the AWSC Winter meeting the first weekend of January. I had a couple friends cancel their rooms. Wife, son, and myself are still going. My 4 year old was super excited about the pool and railroad...

    Favorite stops from back in the day..

    We always stopped there on the Saxon run. Good times, but terrible outcome of the bar. It was set on fire after a guy killed the bartender. 2016 I believe.

    John Dee

    RIP JD. Your kindness and passion for the outdoors and sports was unmatched. I haven't been on here too long, but love hearing all the stories from others. Great man and will be missed. A memorial on the trail would be great. A gofundme would be great to get something setup for the family or...

    What Will You Be Riding This Winter?

    I couldn't live without my fuel doors or roof vent. Agree with Hoosier and MS, I always gas them up before we get to the destination. Get dressed and go. I always find it a pain to get all geared up, and have to stop a couple minutes after firing the sleds up. I replaced my stock vent with...

    John Dee's Seasonal Forecast

    Well, I'm holding out hope for central WI, as John noted! We've been dry all season(until the last 2 weeks), and due for some average or above average snows. Agree with Gary on 14-15. I checked my logs. Stevens Point had 12” at Thanksgiving time. December had 0.2” of snow for entire month...

    What Will You Be Riding This Winter?

    I'm currently at 8100 miles on my '17 as well. I had the top end rebuilt at 6800 for peace of mind. Strong runner. Sled is too fun to give up. :)

    Milwaukee snow show is no more

    I attended Wide Open WI on Saturday. It was my first time and was a great day! Turn out seemed ok, but nothing crazy. I got to see a lot of friends from the association, local clubs, and some other forum friends. The safety classes were well attended. Good to see that! I helped in the AWSC booth...

    Packers & Bears, Whadda Ya Think?

    Gutey looking like a mastermind after this! Rodgers was a risk, and now Lafleur gets to run his offense and not have it overrode by Rodgers. Man, the media was trashing the Bears after that game. :) Love was poised the whole game. O line did a great job, and wasn't much pressure.
