    SnowTech Editorial Scary Snowmobiling Future

    Great point. I have a good pulse on where I ride as to which businesses help out the most with the trail systems. I assure you my crew supports those places significantly more then those businesses that don't help. That support is likely far better then my $25 club membership.

    SnowTech Editorial Scary Snowmobiling Future

    I would sure love to know how you know those people on the wrong side of the trail are new riders. Its this mentality that it was all the new riders or young riders causing the problem that run people off from the clubs. I see more older riders riding 2-ups thinking they are going slow so its...

    not good news for Polaris sled owners

    Rumor is they have a fix, it has been tested and waiting on a response back from the Government if it covers things.

    Rising fuel costs hinder planned trips?

    I think you will see some dips in attendance but I wouldn't relate it all to gas prices, etc. A lot of people spent significant time in the Northwoods the last two years during COVID. Those people have other things going on now (kids sports, other vacations, return to work) that can likely...

    Rising fuel costs hinder planned trips?

    Breakfast is a hard business......You don't make as much as a place serving lunch and dinner. The booze adds up and most places in the Northwoods can't be open for all three.

    It's a Walmart thing....

    Sounds like a group of people who can't handle change. Once you learn how to use it goes so much faster which means less line. Sounds like the wheel chair guy needed some help. Gotta love that people think they need a discount for using it. I guess that shouldn't be a huge surprise...

    It's a Walmart thing....

    This sound more like a knock on the residents of Burlington, Wi not knowing how to use a computer/self check out then a Walmart problem. Hopefully you don't live there......:) I choose self check every time as I don't often have many things in my cart when at the store.

    Hopefully NONE of you support this guy

    Small Northwoods towns need people like them to help out when times are tough. AS you mentioned, they bought up a lot of business and help turn them around which in turn provides jobs and service to those residents/visitors. Families such as the Uline crew do far more for areas in the...

    Sticker shock

    Consumer expectation is as high as ever yet they still want it as cheap as it was 5-10 years ago. The race to the bottom pricing is over unfortunately for all of us. The trend has changed and people will need to adjust accordingly.

    stay on your side of the trail

    Its why I enjoy riding after dark the best especially those tight twisty trails. Seeing headlight makes a huge difference.

    The 2023 Ski Doo Models

    Once you have one of those nice gauges you won't want to go back. Six of my buddies ordered sleds this year from Polaris. 5 guys got the fancy gauge and one did not. He is just like you.....doesn't need fancy things, shocks, gauges, etc. All he could talk about this weekend was selling his...

    Then tell me how the world works. Car dealers have plenty of competition given everything is online.

    Stealth 7.5 wide snowmobile trailer

    I had a stealth 7.5x14 with 5' V. Loved this trailer. It was fully loaded and the best two place I've ever had that could also fit three sleds in by getting creative. The extra width is fantastic. Only reason I sold it is I wanted a sled a I could move around in my storage building by my self...

    New trucks

    Now is the time it pays to have strong relationships. If you buy a lot of vehicles your dealer will take care of you. If you shop 10 different dealers and always buy from the cheapest expect to pay full price.

    Any info on Polaris sled shipments?

    You clearly don't have a pulse of Polaris troubles. Heck, many of the sled had been built but Polaris takes 3-4 weeks to deliver sleds 6 hours from the factory. Spare me the " it's every industry" line. Or shipping is a mess. If Polaris made it a priority to get us our sleds they could. Instead...

    Any info on Polaris sled shipments?

    So how do you explain the head of the Polaris snow division going on video in October telling snow check customers all sleds would be delivered in November?? That's 7 months after we ordered the sleds and one month from when he thinks they are getting delivered. Mine didn't get built until...

    Any info on Polaris sled shipments?

    My sled has not arrived or shipped. Was suppose to in January and that looks very unlikely at this point. Polaris has its head in its ass trying to ship sleds.

    Dog sled team hit by Snowmobiler in Bayfield WI

    I just can't wrap my head around why anyone would purposely hit the dogs with his or hers own sled. I would think this could have caused damage to the sled. I guess I'm just not buying this was done purposely. Short of the sled being stolen by some drunk/drugged up guy who had no idea what he...

    Recent storms

    John - the last three weather events (Sunday December 5th, the rain event and December 21) that have hit Northern Wisconsin have seemed to pack more of a punch then forecasted Both snow events forecasted (not just you) for 1-4" and Northern Wisconsin received closer to 6-8". Then the rain...
