Have to keep the landowners happy however if warms up next week the county may never open this season again. At this point open let the riders decide if meets their standards many don’t care if it’s white they are happy riding snirt and snomo biz needs the revenue. Not for me but I understand...

Bring your handsaw and brush snippers. I used to keep several FRs clear for use to trails in WI and shortcuts back to Phelps from MI. Rule of thumb if plowed don’t ride if unplowed have at it. Maps tell you where you are in the system but no one knows what is plowed and unplowed. The other wild...

No one cares if they are unplowed but snow gets deep and rough. If plowed don’t ride it.

Just the business facts nothing but the facts.

Seems like perfect conditions to me to ride a bar stool watch NFL playoff games. Isn’t that the plan eat drink enjoy the Northwoods establishments. You want to ride head north to the UP snowbelts where everyone else is riding should be some outstanding whoops up there but you’re riding …Right?

You keep banging the drum for less expensive sleds. Acquiring AC in TRF ain’t going to do that it’s not feasible or Textron would have been happy to undercut snowmobile pricing if they could make money. CF Moto doesn’t need TRF to do that they could bring in Chinese crap with tariffs and sell it...

I understand the reasons for opening good luck and best wishes to all the snowmobile businesses and the riders that use the trails. Early season is what it is so let’s hope it snows soon!

Early or late season conditions should be a red flag as experienced riders already know what they will see when they unload. Those that don’t know will soon learn. However once a county opens it’s up to the individual rider whether those conditions meet their standards. I’m not a fan of wearing...

Lando is the gateway to the UP and always has more snow than let’s say Eagle River. Living in Phelps we often had 20” more snow than Eagle River and Lando had more than us. I know there was a vote to separate Vilas into north and south zones which obviously stayed all or nothing. Why it failed...

Idk Paul info about opening Vilas is tight now not saying anything. Maybe they are waiting to get closer to the weekend to capitalize on MLK weekend. Trails won’t hold up to traffic that’s for sure. In my 16 years of living in Vilas once open Vilas never shut down trails until end of season too...

What goes down will come back up. The underlying cause of the stock market downturn is inflation rearing its head again when it never was under control imo. The Fed said no more rate cuts in the short term due to inflation and some investors were already factoring in 2-3 rate cuts. Fools imo it...

Agree that’s a lot of gas to burn off. As everyone said I put my old gas in cars and trucks which is a pita put doesn’t endanger snowmobile engines especially the 2s.

Insurance companies pulled out won’t insure them. Most had complete loss of everything. CA is a high risk place to live I told them no in the 80s and 90s glad I did. Also had offers in TX and AZ told them no too but that was harder to do.

Why is this thread still here obviously no sale?

Drained mine out starting with new so let me know how it goes with 2 year old gas and what kind of engine.

Live and learn when it gets that deep it’s time to understand the limits of you machine. When snow starts constantly coming over your tall windshield and you are on a trail sled you start wondering how did I get here and how do I get out this won’t end well. Lol

Totally agree we originally came here for John’s weather expertise so we could plan snowplay trips to the WI Northwoods and UP. I too was hoping eventually this service could be backfilled somehow someway. Imo experience organizations should listen to the voice of the customer to give them what...

Sorry but that made me laugh I didn’t expect that but should have after all that was said about my Yamahas guess I’m used to it 🤷‍♂️😆

I ran leads out the back of the seat so I could charge ,get a jump or give a jump. Got the idea from owning Yamaha 4s for years.
