    New Journal is up

    Thanks for mentioning it's updated. It's strange how I miss reading John's updates on Sundays. Been a habit for decades now! I feel bad mentioning that given what his family has lost. Thanks for continuing to share your life with us. My oldest son is the same age as Grace and I just can't...

    Site Issues

    Me too. Happy to pay some kind of subscription. Geesh - I've relied on johndee.com for 20+ years and other than a make a wish contribution, I've never paid anything for all the info I get on here, both from John or from other members.

    Trailer padlocks

    Same here - don't put the locks on while traveling. We haven't had issues since we quit doing that.

    Just Dreaming this morning

    That looks nice. We had some of the best conditions the past couple seasons. Probably luck of the draw as to when we planned our trips but still. Tough year so far!

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    The timing is interesting since the last El Niño of this magnitude was in 97.

    Lessons from John

    His forecast for this season is spot on so far unfortunately. On the bright side no one is worried about the January thaw...

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    Was going to take the kids up to Eagle River probably today. Oh well. We passed up 2 good opportunities last year due to their sports schedules...won't make that mistake again!

    North of Superior Loop?

    I don't see how that will re-open anytime soon although I've seen some chatter from some people wanting to re-open it.

    Favorite stops from back in the day..

    I broke a torsion spring on my fusion one trip up there. Didn't have much choice but I kept riding it and made sure I stood up if there were any bumps. It wasn't too bad on one spring. But on the last leg of the loop on the way back to the truck in Searchmont and about a mile from Halfway Haven...

    Favorite stops from back in the day..

    For now yeah. There are a number of issues going on there but the biggest is that the seasonal road that is used to get gas to it has some significant wash outs so that you can't get gas to it. They've also had troubles finding operators and the building is in need of some TLC. It would probably...

    Favorite stops from back in the day..

    Had some good times at the bar in Mass City the past few winters. It's hard not to be in a good mood when you are sitting there, whether you excited about the upcoming day's ride or rehashing the day you just finished. The pizza always hits the spot. Always liked the wawa motor inn too. And...

    All Things Christmas

    We got an 84 Bravo brand new for Christmas. Still have a picture of my 3 brothers and I all sitting on our around it, in t shirts and shorts, as that Christmas was so warm. Here's for hoping this winter is just a bad start!

    We were spoiled

    I remember that NW Indiana storm in 97-98 (may have been 98-99 but that doesn't matter). I lived in that area and was home from college as I had surgery and was home recovering. A couple of my buds drove their sleds over from several towns over (mostly just riding down the streets), partly to...

    Is Everyone Ready?

    I'm not ready. Never seem to get ready until around Christmas. I don't have a whole lot to do but I do need to change the driveshaft bearing. Sled is at a bud's garage a couple hours away and that makes it hard to make time to get at. Kids keep me too busy but that's fun too....

    We were spoiled

    We definitely were spoiled. I suppose it doesn't matter so much yet this year with the stupid super el nino but I'm still checking.
