    Where's all the sleds

    this past weekend was the first time I have went on a weekend, let alone a holiday weekend since I can't remember when sunday thru thursday our choice for riding, and now that there is good snow in the north woods of wisconsin as well traffic will be spread out even more and that's just fine...

    Groomer or Grooming issue north of Mosquito

    Skylar, thank you for that! it sounds like a grooming timing and traffic issue which makes sense and I agree daytime grooming makes no sense especially on high traffic or just weekends in general. I'm sorry this post turned into finger pointing and putting blame on riders and based on what type...

    Groomer or Grooming issue north of Mosquito

    Thanks sMgE46M! And I do drop in the boxes every time I stop, enjoyment doesn't come free nor is it an entitlement. I wasn't trying to blame anyone or any kind of rider just the difference from one side of the road to the other. Thank you again for chiming in!

    Klim or Castle heated gloves

    Thank you again for all the information and input, I have decided against hard wired gloves for a few reasons and as far as battery ones I am going to order a pair of FXR, seems everyone is happy with theirs, has all 5 star reviews and sounds like a good warranty and a company who stands with...

    Klim or Castle heated gloves

    this was also my other concern with wired gloves, hooking it up to battery if you start drawing more than the engine is replacing you could end up with issues...I think. Heating elements generally draw more than other accessories and if you are running grips, lever heated shield, could open up...

    Klim or Castle heated gloves

    all this information is great! sounds like pro's and cons both ways, the wired ones only concern me as now you have more cables hanging around along with helmet cable and would be afraid adding a liner inside the glove would make it too bulky but on the other hand the "claimed" battery life by...

    Groomer or Grooming issue north of Mosquito

    old abe, I agree with you 200% and this is the point I was trying to make as you stated " I would venture to say that there is just as much traffic to, and from the Bug Bar towards Twin Lakes and Greenland? Just my experience" and that is spot on! and why then the dividing line? you cant blame...

    Klim or Castle heated gloves

    My wife and I like to put on the miles, not uncommon for 200 - 250 mile day, I appreciate the unput as they claim for up to 6 hours and it looks like the gloves heat the top of hand and the fingers, just seems like the answer outside of gauntlets. Thank you gpt I appreciate it!

    Klim or Castle heated gloves

    While having breakfast at Char's Cafe in Bruce Crossing we overheard and talked to some riders about heated gloves. We had an accident a couple years ago and as the reason for and as result of we removed the gauntlets from my wife's sled, and there are times when it gets really cold (like this...

    Groomer or Grooming issue north of Mosquito

    John I agree with traffic and timing and believe me I'm not trying to piss anyone off by any means or point fingers but the same amount of traffic heads south and north as there are no real junctions, or areas where traffic would be introduced to that stretch and if traffic is to blame the...

    Groomer or Grooming issue north of Mosquito

    mezz i agree with throttle jockies in certain areas but I don't think that whatever road that is that this is where the jockies start and stop, i mean it was that night and day difference. And please don't think I am blaming the operator, there is obviously something not being done or being done...

    Groomer or Grooming issue north of Mosquito

    Now I know New Years is not an ideal weekend for ideal trail conditions but..... there seemed to be a dividing line of where good grooming quit and grooming or groomer issues begins. Trail 3 from Greenland to the first road crossing past the Mosquito was almost perfection the entire weekend...
