Oneida opening now too… not expecting that…

Heading up to the Keweenaw Friday morning! Plan subject to change, but thinking of doing the Mass, Rousseau, Sidnaw, Alston, twin lakes loop on Friday, and then riding north of the bridge on Saturday. Staying in Houghton, my 30th bday weekend! Haven’t ridden north of the bridge in 5 years and...

minimal excitement for the 26 trail sleds. Due to the possible tariffs, or until that gets straightened out, I would be doing everything I could to buy a 25 leftover right now.

Iron county is opening

Probably way too young to start listing my bucket list items. Lots of riding areas I’d love to still visit.

In 2019 Doo updated the 600 etec and called it the 600r. Added around 5 or so horsepower. Been the same since. Been crossing my fingers for a 650 or 670 motor to compete with Poos 650. Still holding out hope!

Yep, I just can’t wrap my head around how 90% of counties in the state operate just fine with zones but a few select up north continue to say “doesn’t work for us” LOL got it…

Why are trails still technically open in Vilas? Easy, because it’s such a pain in the arse to reopen, so instead of closing them as soon as conditions don’t permit a snowmobile to ride, they keep them open an extra week just in case weather improves. Anywhere south of Oneida, will open day after...

Agreed, it’s a bunch of BS how Vilas and Oneida operates with their opening, closing, inspections, etc.

Blizzard gets you the 7.2” gauge, ice ripper track, and clicker shocks

I intended to go new base model Adrenaline, but this thing popped up with 3k miles for $7700 and I couldn’t resist at that price.

Well, the insurance check was burning a hole in the ole pocket. Picked up this used 24 Blizzard 600r 129” for the missus for a smoking deal, we now have matching blizzards! Will pass down her 19 TNT to the little dude.

The track is pitched out so that it only rotated and hit the same spot of the cog each time. It’s not too ugly luckily

Definitely not something you see every day! Was running alongside a road when it started thumping, but this was right after holding it wide open across a field, so thought maybe driveshaft bearing.

No, but it beat up the drive cog just a little bit in 1 spot. After it happened I limped it a few miles to the nearest bar.

Because it’s a giant pain for them to reopen. Have to have a special county alliance meeting and a full blown inspection etc. Nobody in their right mind is going to actually ride it so who cares.

Talk about some crazy bad luck! Check this out! This is what was causing the thumping on the Indy 600. Kind of bummed I tore everything down just to discover it but oh well, least it’s solved!

1500, hoping for a chance to go up 1 more time if weather allows

There’s a decent Cobblestone Inn & Suites in Brillion across the street from the trail, could easily stay there next time. I was tempted to head more east and maybe up into door county area but after riding these trails Friday, I had to go back and do the same thing again because they were in...
