    Above the Law...LOL

    Yes, refers to credibility of a witness. In the case with these two officers, one is an investigator and the other is a Lieutenant. I'm not making an excuse for their actions/behavior, because it was wrong, but it is unlikely either is out making DUI/OWI arrests so therefor court credibility...

    Above the Law...LOL

    From what I know, that sounds about right for fair and just discipline.

    Above the Law...LOL

    Must be nice to be as perfect as you. If these two were plumbers or electricians would anybody give a crap? Would it make the news and have every sanctimonious do-gooder condemning them? They were NOT on duty. Cops have personal lives and yes, they make mistakes. I get it that cops are held to a...

    What makes us ride where we do?

    Glad you are ok and here to still talk about it. And I agree with you that this a bad year for accidents and fatalities. I am in no way clairvoyant or psychic, but we rode last weekend in NW Vilas and I told my wife and friends riding with us that I was really not going to be surprised when I...

    Tomahawk Update 2-22-23

    Sad. From what I remember was a very nice trail system.

    Looking for advice/opinions

    Thank you to everyone that replied. Placed my order this morning for the new Grand Touring and went with the 900 ACE. As hybrid said, there is no replacement for displacement and even though my "go fast" days are behind me, I felt the 600 ACE would be a little under-powered for that sled with...

    Tomahawk Update 2-22-23

    Saw riders out in Westfield on my way back to Chicago from the Northwoods on Sunday. Been a long time since I saw people out on those trails. First trail rides for me in that area back in the early/mid 70s.

    Looking for advice/opinions

    After 20 years, I have decided to update one of my reserve/guest snowmobiles. It is a 2003 SkiDoo MXZ Sport 600. It has the 1+1 seat that has served us well while the kids were growing up and when guests came to our cabin. I will be placing a spring order for a SkiDoo Grand Touring soon. The...

    NW Vilas Update 2/23 PM

    80 mile loop today from Presque Isle to Winchester, Mercer, Manitowish Waters and back. Presque Isle/Winchester trails were groomed and very nice. Plenty of light powder and still plowing through untouched trails. The short distance we rode Mercer trails were very nice and appeared to have been...

    Vilas County this weekend

    Coming down hard in Presque Isle and adding up quickly at 8:30 am. 6" plus since last night here. Can't see the lakeshore at times which is 80 feet from the deck. Did not ride yesterday but PI/Winchester did groom. Trails looked great from the car yesterday. Heading out shortly and will update...

    P.I. Winchester, M.W. Ride 1/21

    We got a late start yesterday for a ride due to an uninvited guest in the cabin. Seems that a red squirrel got in either when my wife let the dog out, (100 times) or when I brought in a load of firewood, (once). Guess who got the blame? Took off from PI on 6W and was pleased at how nice the new...

    Im looking at 8+" on the deck in Presque Isle. Talked to my daughter this morning in Bessemer and she says more than a foot of new snow up there. Time to motivate and go for a little ride. PI Snobunnies posting that they will resume grooming tonight. Snowmobile season part 2 begins.

    Presque Isle Trails Closed

    Thanks racerx. I called our club vice-president last night and told him about Travelwisconsin.com bad information. Somebody screwed up somewhere.

    How’s this for you guys

    Ouch, glad nobody was hurt. Opened post and saw picture before I read post and got that sick feeling in my stomach. Glad story had a good ending.

    Tomahawk update 2-15-23

    You should expand and sell motors in Presque Isle. Saw a group of riders at the gas station today with the sled hood open and smoke pouring from it. Didn't want to stick my nose where it did not belong but a wise guess is that riding on ice trails and pavement didn't do very well for the engine...

    Presque Isle Trails Closed

    I just came from a Presque Isle/Winchester SnoBunnies fundraiser event at the PI Pub and while there, one of the board members came to me and showed me her phone news feed showed that Vilas County trails were closed. Being that she is a board member, and would have been in the know, I told her...

    NW Vilas update 2/17

    Ventured out of the cabin yesterday (car) and hit a local watering hole. Presque Isle had light snow on/off all day that amounted to nothing. Trails looked snow covered and icy. 3 riders in the Retreat Bar that said they had rode down from Hurley. They said the trails were rough. Winchester...

    Langlade, Oneida, Vilas trail conditions.

    Here is the truth from NW Vilas, (Presque Isle). 40s here yesterday and Sunday with pretty much full sunshine. 42 predicted today with sunshine right now and rain starting around 4pm. There were riders out yesterday and from what they were saying is the trails are deteriorating quickly. There...
