    Hay Days this year

    Not terribly surprised on the Milwaukee show. Hopefully that will get some more people out for WOW now! My wife still has her boots that she bought from Highlands. Too bad about them.

    Packers & Bears, Whadda Ya Think?

    Glad it's back! Seems like it's basically a toss up for the betters then. I'll go with Packers by 3. Love showed a lot of composure during the preseason which was encouraging. Not a lot of defenses blitzing and pressure though, so we'll see what happens under pressure. I'm expecting ups an...

    Hay Days this year

    I'm not sure what to expect from WOW. It's still pretty young, is only the 3rd year? I'm hoping it can turn into what the Milwaukee show was 10ish years ago. I'm sure it will take a little time. Bring in a little more music, and will draw more people also. Good to see the club offering the...

    Hay Days this year

    I'm skipping this year. Not too much needed this year. Going to Wide Open Wisconsin to check it out. Working the AWSC booth in the afternoon for a couple hours. We'll be back next year though! Have fun!

    Cool thing in McDonalds drive up today

    That's very nice of you! The bad news outshines the good news out there.... Good to hear things like this. I'm the same way with my tips. At least 20%. I worked in the restaurant business and know how hard they work. My wife picked up a side job to waitress a couple times a month to pay some...

    RV Solar panel

    Parallel. One of the downfalls of that configuration, is if you have one shaded, it vastly affects overall output. I get around 7amps output facing the sun in March with 3. I get that same amount with one in summer.

    RV Solar panel

    Heckler gave some really good info. There's some good articles and blogs out there, but just needs some time to research it. I installed 2 qty 100W panels flat on my sled trailer. I have a EPEVER MPPT 30A solar charger. With 2 panels, I did not have enough sun to keep the batteries trickle...

    Mosquitos

    Sorry, I feel for you guys! At my house in Columbia county, there has been no absolutely no mosquitos. I have not seen one! My yard is as crisp as it gets. We got a little rain yesterday, but rain has been non-existent for almost a month.

    Sleepy River bridge on trail 13 washed away!

    That's really too bad. It's such a unique area, and always good snowfall. I haven't been in that area since the washouts. Those closed ones were really fun trails. Just running 3 gets pretty old. I'm surprised there hasn't been more accountability from the MI snowmobile association on the DNR...

    Not medical quackery...so far

    Good to hear on your health now! Wow, that's crazy. My dad has used a cpap for at least 15 years now. Back when we shared a hotel room during trips before he had it, it was god awful. He kept me up the whole night with his snoring. I can't believe my mom shared the same bed with that snoring...

    The Season in Review with Pictures

    Great pics from all! We had a great year! My kid probably put on at least 150 miles on his 120. That is no joke. There was multiple weekends where we went to the back field, and we would ride around for hours. I had over 30 miles on my sled days at a time. And he had more since my wife would...

    How many miles did you put on this season?

    I always love the end of year threads to hear everyone's stories. Great year for our crew! Just a tad under 2K mileage. In central WI, our local trails were only open for 6 days. Only 2.5 of them were really good. Just couldn't beat the warmth this year. We rode in 14 different counties in...

    NW Vilas Update 3/21

    Great pics! We rode those same trails on Saturday. Just beautiful. 11 is a fantastic trail! Was it logging that shut it down for a season or 2? We almost took 11 on Saturday.. I had a my 3 year old with, and figured with colder temps, it would have been a longer ride between stops. He does...

    Southern wisconsin Camping with boating available too.

    We would play pickup volleyball games after work there. Nice little spot. We did a lot of boating in Madison around '07-13' when I lived there. Seems like the blue green algae has gotten worse over the years. We have not done a lot of trips lately. It is nice chain you can run on. Mendota, to...

    How is trail grooming managed?

    Good questions. Pclark is correct. $300 a mile now. In WI, funding comes from the DNR. Typically that goes to the county coordinator, and they distribute the funds. SNARS is the online reporting the clubs use. The county coordinator will approve that. Not all trails are funded though. Club...
