Finally got my letter in the mail yesterday. I have 3 sleds affected by this. I was reading the snowgoer article on this: The fix varies between the three pumps, but each one has been identified and is going through testing, we were told. Each will involve removing those fuel pumps and either...

Thanks! My wife was heart broken having to board our dog for the weekend. Saving the food and boarding cost is an easy justification. (y)

I paid $15 in the West lot for parking. I got in traffic line around 8:35, and was in the gates within 15 minutes. Pretty smooth parking there. Crazy what events charge for beer. I don't typically drink at those just for that reason. If I did, I would smuggle in Korbel. :)I think I saw Ken's...

Count me in! This will be my boy's second year going. 3.5 years old. He hangs in the wagon when we really need to move! I'm finally getting a tek vest. I believe there are some lighter ones out there. Also need a new jacket. I'll see how well it fits with the jacket. I have to upgrade the...

Thanks for info! I'll avoid it all together then! Ah I see. I figured there was a method for the madness!

The air traffic on Sunday was crazy. I'm directly north of Portage by a couple miles, and must be in pretty big fly zone. Plane after plane all day long. My boy loved it! Saw quite a few running side by side. I'll have to get up to it some day. We've watched some of it from the Fox River on the...

Mine was also $1.69 last year. Both my neighbors burn wood. Agreed on the time! When I purchased my house, they had a pellet stove installed on the main area. I usually try to run it a couple weeks during the winter. Just to give my furnace a break. I may look into using that more this year...

I just signed my winter contract. $2.14 per gallon. Crawford Propane out of Portage, WI.

That's too bad. What's the issue with trail 3 south of Houghton?

I just got my summer fill. Crawford Propane out of Portage, WI. $1.94 a gallon. I rent the tank. The winter contracts are going to be released soon. My supplier comes out with a weekly blog. Below is the blog from last week. My price I paid last summer was $1.59. The one bright spot in all...

Sorry, I didn't realize you were from Rapids! One lake to try is Lake Puckaway. Just west of Big Green lake. Just not a big recreational lake due to it being a little more shallow(part of Fox River), and getting overlooked by people going to Green Lake. There are numerous taverns to stop, and...

One nice spot is Adams County Castle Rock Park. On Castle Rock lake. Suprised shoot2kill didn't mention that one. They have a boat launch right in the campground. Nice beach area also. Castle Rock has good variety. Lot of bars to stop, and can run the WI river on the north end and utilize the...

Indeed! The sled does not do well in deeper snow, only hardpack. This helped with him learning. When majority of the deeper stuff melted and most was hardpack, that got a little more nerve racking! It no longer kept him contained! He missed the turn and went flying towards my neighbor's driveway...

It was just a tick below average year for me. 1100 miles. I had to travel for all my trips this year. We were consistently 2-4" away from our local trails opening many times. Disappointed all of our marking and brushing was for naught this season, but I look at that as my price to ride other...

Thanks. All part of life's up and downs. It was a pretty cruel to go through it though! I did not have them tied down. I know people have different opinions on this, and rules. I still do not tie them down. You could argue I wouldn't have any sled damage or missed riding time if they were tied...

Not something you see too often. This was taken on Lake Waubesa, just south of Madison.

How many guys on here have rolled trailers? I did about 4 years ago. Pretty crazy story too. I purchased my first ever, brand new sled in Feb of '17. That was a shit year, and most trails were done by then. It was 60F in Feb when I bought it. Dec of '17 was also terrible. 2nd weekend of...

We had a '02 Chevy Suburban 3/4 ton with the 8100. That could pull anything, but with a cost-gas mileage.. It pulled our heavy steel deck over for many years.

Madison vs Dane county is different! I've lived in downtown Madison and village of Dane. Still work in Middleton, but live in Portage. There are a lot of passionate people here who ride, and take pride in the trails. Dane county actually has a pretty good network of trails. Would we all prefer...

Sorry to hear. Get well!
