    Been a rough month

    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

    Been a rough month

    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.

    Vilas County

    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!

    The annual 24-25 how many miles thread!

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

    Calumet County

    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...

    Calumet County

    You aren’t missing much immediately east of the river… Fremont New London/northport and Hortonville areas get hammered with traffic and mostly running all chisel plowed fields

    Calumet County

    Does nobody ride here? Spent the last 2 days racking up 180 miles of perfection. Trails on the west side of the Fox valley and west side of lake Winnebago don’t hold a candle to this. Can’t believe they’re closing these trails in the morning

    This Flu season sucks!

    Lots of coworkers friends and family getting a nasty case of influenza A for the past month. Take a hefty dose of vitamins, unvaxxed, never a flu vax in my lifetime, and haven’t caught anything yet (knock on wood)

    I have made at least a dozen trips to my local doo dealer this winter and they’ve never once had the parts in stock I’ve needed, and most have not been stocked in their us warehouse either. I would definitely be losing my marbles and demanding the part to be removed off a sled on the showroom...

    Waushara County & surrounding...

    Nice report. Regarding that trail being a “corridor trail” my local club abandoned a main corridor trail (corridor 26) and put forth little to no effort to find a reroute, so I can’t imagine that was the reasoning that trail in RG is open again, but I did see the post last fall that you’re...

    Yeah, next to no traffic where he’s riding. Great county to ride in

    Been a rough month

    We had my dad leading, then mom, then the woman, then the little dude, then me pulling up the tail. That way I could watch and try to help/teach/correct what he was doing. I would pull up behind and assist him at road crossings as well. The instance where the accident happened, his electric...

    Been a rough month

    I wore a Klim tekvest in my offtrail days but can’t bring myself to wearing one trail riding. I did make the little dude wear an MX style tekvest, and I believe it helped protect his ribs on his accident.

    A Sunday Morning 60 miler

    Gary, when were you near Greenville? I saw a solo blizzard just like that behind me briefly yesterday around 3pm maybe, I was on my dads 19 MXZ x 600 with a tall windshield going home to get the truck and trailer to go rescue his 14 Indy 600. I live about 2 miles as the crow flies northeast of...

    Trying my best. Yes this is the case, 3 of my own plus a beater Indy 440, and then my parents have 3 sleds as well I maintain. Also did a lot of work to my cousins and uncles last fall.

    Been a rough month

    Yep, urban sprawl really limits where kids can ride anything nowadays, not to mention Karen’s calling kids in if they see anything but a pedal bike to past their house. He put tons of miles on his 120 at our old house and his 90cc 4 wheeler a handful of years ago, now living in a subdivision and...
