    Riding 2-up on a renegade w/1+1 seat-comfortable?

    The renegade we a 1+1 is a very comfortable ride did it on the gen 1 and the xs versions gen1 is definitely not as comfortable as newer versions especially if your taller.

    What is your favorite UP ghost story or "haunted" location?

    I live on Cisco chain now and still just the foundation and and the to fireplace chimneys. My kid and some of there friends have walked it, said it was weird. Very hard to see from the lake with all the trees being overgrown. I believe there are some new owners of the property but no idea of...

    Trail 2 - Losing a section due to change of ownership

    What I liked about the post is they brought the local government into the picture. Now it is known throughout the community and the loss of income that the snowmobile community brings will help the local government to help with a solution. So yes now new owners hopefully understand how important...

    Anyone in Florida right now?

    Have family in the Saint Pete/ Tampa area and just got a text a lot of wind and rain but doing ok. The wife and I were just down there for packer game and left on Monday and really glad I did. But the locals don’t seem to be that worried yet.

    SnowTech Editorial Scary Snowmobiling Future

    So you don’t see much benefit in joining a club, well who would do the work then? The bar owners or the resort owners, oh wait the have to kiss there patrons backsides so they will give them some tip money and maybe come back the there place of business again. The area that the club I belong to...

    Lodging recommendations.

    I would second on the idea of late September or early October over memorial day weekend bugs will be worse could still be in mud season or could be absolutely perfect in May.

    Electric vehicle

    This is very true my son is an electrical engineer and works for a utility in Wisconsin and said this year (not even a real hot one) that the Midwest almost came to a point of not having enough supply to support the demand. So I asked why are they tearing down plants? And his comment is most of...

    Gas

    All kinda of democratic run states temporarily cutting state fuel tax (to give us all a break) as said above to get votes and if they do it will go right back up. As for diesel there is no reason for it to be more than gas with the exception of oil companies gouging.

    Electric vehicle

    Not going to argue your numbers, but to trust the government to get that done is not very reassuring, especially in UP. They promised us (western UP) high speed internet (government supported) by 2022 in 2021 now saying 2023 and I would be willing to bet won’t happen by 2024. So I believe they...

    Gas

    Funny thing is liberal Dane county has been cheaper than most of the state sense gas has been going up, kind of interesting. And I also have a very hard time believing what old Abe said that we are at max in refining, I have a hard time believing we are using more fuel that before the pandemic.

    So are you towing this with an EV or an ICE? Or in this logic you can use a Tesla to tow a Tesla switching every 10 miles and eventually both will be fully charged without ever plugging in, just don’t ever see this being possible

    Funny thing is a train is half way to being a hybrid, it’s Diesel engines powering electric motors that propel the train. So just add a bunch of extra cars to carry batteries and put solar panels on top of all cars and there you go. Then charging stations along the tracks and all set. Sounds...

    Point to my first question is besides our government and certain places (woodman’s) trying to drum up business giving it away now, at some point including now it is going to be for profit and how is that going to be regulated. Yes certain areas the infrastructure will be able to handle it but it...

    I have a question, probably for grub any idea of what the average price is at a pay charging station is to get a recharge?

    Gas

    I’m feeling really good about my decision back in March to refill my 300 gallon fuel tank with premium for $3.97 a gallon delivered and it should get me through summer into fall. Not looking forward to next refill.

    Walleyes for Tomorrow

    As Whitedust has stated besides northern Wisconsin also the UP has same issues with the spearing. And the stupid thing is if one band of Indian’s don’t meet there quota other bands will travel to lakes that they normally don’t fish just to make sure they take everything they can out of every...

    For those who are interested;

    I can not say I’ve used it, but know many that have used amsoil with no warranty problems. With that said I had a 600 etec rebuild and when the business that rebuilt it asked how many miles because of basically no wear I’ve always stayed the Doo oil. And if you can find a dealer that sells it in...

    Groomer tracker app

    Another thing GroomerTracker app does which would be good for all clubs and people riding is it gives you them most accurate trail route better than a map or gps app like ride command if the trail gets changed at all. Even the groomer tracker app trails are not correct but the groomer goes where...

    Groomer tracker app

    I don’t know if was me using it but once in a while it didn’t work when I checked it but that wasn’t often. The groomer tracker app is a private run app nothing to do with any government or state, it does run in real time refreshing every 15 minutes so depending when you check it you will be...

    Groomer tracker app

    Uncle Ed, I agree with your statement about why wouldn’t all clubs want it especially because it is free to the club to get it. It’s great for the trail boss to know where groomer is and when they get back and yes for safety. It is tracked every 15 minutes and is gps so it is accurate just on a...
