    did you have to clean your pants out? S%& like that happens to me at 95mph, I'd be dropping a big old dookie in my shorts!:ROFLMAO:

    Mild & Crappy for January in the Keweenaw

    We had a fair bit in IA, but it's raining and all being washed away. We are done.

    looking at ski doos, need advise

    Don't know much about Doo's other than we rode with a guy that had one last w/e. He hit a tree and bent his bumper. We worked on it on the mountain and PURELY based on how difficult it was to get the hood / side panels off & on, I can confidently say that I will never own a Doo in my lifetime...

    Refrigerators

    didn't read all the other comments, but from what I've learned is make sure whatever you get has local repair shops for that particular brand. LG and Samsung are notorious for NOT having authorized repair shops. So they become a very expensive paperweight at that point.... you (basically)...

    Colorado

    Not particularly. They do some grooming but it's not every day. Typically hit them 1-3 times a week. For the northern section of CO, North Routt Snow Riders is your club to follow for updates on grooming.

    Colorado

    If you are itching for snow, Colorado has all of it and more!!! Just got back from riding Hahn's Peak area about 40m north of Steamboat. Stayed at Steamboat Lake Outpost (formerly known as Hahn's Peak Roadhouse). Deepest snow we've ever ridden and un-touched pow all day long! Getting there was...

    Early Season Checklist

    I hear that! Some years we might not get to everything on that list, but seasons like this and no snow to play in, we get to all of it.

    Early Season Checklist

    My checklist for each sled: General pre-season maintenance… We drop the primary & secondary to Thunder Products Clutching booth at Hay Days to be serviced. You can service them yourself if desired. Before installing secondary > Grease bearings behind it with a needle tip Install primary and...

    JD tribute in SnoGoer

    It was a good article. Still lost without his forecasts... My days are not complete.... Don't know if we should be headed to Texas for snow? Wait it out up here? Florida maybe? Please, for the love of God, can we get some sort of direction on where to head??? Kidding of course (but do miss John...

    Inline trailer loading

    Doesn't really matter. You'll ALWAYS need to work on the one you can't easily get too..... As is the case with my bullnose front (no drive-out) in-line anyway. LOL!

    John Dee

    gasped out loud when I just saw this. Very sad to hear. As others mentioned, his journals and his forecasts are a part of our daily lives, especially during "snow season." I too often send screen shots of the brightly lite snow forecast maps to friends / family to show my excitement. Honestly...

    Winter Tires

    That's what I'm saying. I know ice is challenging regardless, but the compound + tread pattern on snow tires has gotta help a fair bit I would think. I certainly don't think the big nobs on AT tires does any good on ice.

    Looking for some info on Handle bar muffs

    wind deflection is underrated. We have both the low pro & taller windshields in the trailer. Swap them out if it's going to be cold. Makes a huge difference!

    Winter Tires

    These tires ARE stud-able (aware not legal in most states). I seriously considered getting some screw in ones and going that route. Afraid they might destroy my driveway thou as well. Ideally would remove / reinstall for each trip, but ain't nobody got time for that. LOL!

    Winter Tires

    Everyone seems to put AT tires on their trucks. They look great and make the truck look mean and all... But... AT tires really are not great on ice. Got me thinking.... Does anyone tow with SNOW tires? 98% of the time we encounter ice on the interstates vs. "deep" snow in parking lots (where...

    Carter/Togwotee

    thanks for letting us know, Indy. Sad to hear of his passing. bumped into him at Hay Days a few years ago. Don't believe he was there this year? Wasn't at the booth when we went by anyway. Good guy, loved to chat about the area.
