This water is from the Wolf and Fox watersheds flowing out of Lake Winnebago at Neenah & Menasha and ending at Green Bay, about 40 miles north.

    The Funeral

    A man was leaving a convenience store with his coffee when he noticed a most unusual funeral procession approaching the nearby cemetery. A black hearse was followed by a second black hearse about 50 feet behind the first one. Behind the second hearse was a solitary man walking a dog on a leash...

    What is this Thing?

    I came across this on another site and thought I'd throw it out there to see if anyone can identify it or it's purpose. Usually I'm pretty good at recognizing most mechanical machines but this one has me stumped. Other than the fact that it's an OSHA Nightmare with all the exposed Drive Belts...

    First Ride of the Season

    Guess I'll go first. I took the Spyder out for the first ride on Monday, 4-15-2019. Sunny skies and 50 degrees, great to feel that "Wind Therapy".

    The Phone Call

    Husband’s call to his wife: "Honey it's me. I don't want to alarm you but I was hit by a car as I was leaving work. Paula brought me to the hospital. They have checked me over and done some tests and some x-rays. The blow to my head was pretty bad but I think it'll be OK. However I have three...

    Give Your Season a Grade

    Most of us are shutting things down for the season and a good time to look back. Last fall, John Dee predicted a pretty much normal winter with an El Nino lurking out there in the Pacific. "overall, it looks like most of the region will see close to average temps and snowfall occur for the...

    The Ghost of Rodney Dangerfield

    I'm not saying let's go kill all the stupid people. I'm just saying let's remove all the warning labels and let the problem work itself out. I changed my car horn to gunshot sounds. People move out of the way much faster now. You can tell a lot about my wife's mood just by her hands. If...

    A Bad Day on Interstate 41

    I had second thoughts of posting this story, so much so that I checked with John. It's a clear indication of what can happen when were driving in Winter weather conditions and we fail to slow down. Or in this case when we encounter White Out conditions at highway speeds. The video was produced...

    A St Patrick's Day Story

    An Irish lady, Midge Kearney, visited her physician to ask his advice on reviving her husband's, Pat's, libido. "What about trying Viagra?" asked the doctor. "Not a chance" she replied. "Pat won't even take an aspirin". "Not a problem," said the doctor. "Give him an Irish Viagra. "What on...

    video of a good day on the trails

    Not much to see here other than a fun bunch of people riding their local trails. Sorry to disappoint if you're looking for off-trail, headstands, deep trenches, and hanging from trees. (Not that there's anything wrong with that) This was on March 2nd, about a week ahead of the current warm up so...

    Don't Try This at Home

    Last weekend I saw something at The Gun Show that sparked my interest. I was looking for a little something different for my wife Dana. What I came across was a pocket/purse-sized Tazer. The effects of the Tazer were supposed to be short lived, with no long term adverse affect on your...

    One Heck of a Story

    On our recent snowmobile trip to the Mercer area I picked up on a story that many of the locals are familiar with, the crashes of two Cold War era B47 bombers about 10 miles south of Hurley. These were huge planes, the precursor to the B52. The two planes crashed within 4 miles of one another, 3...

    Video from Mercer, Wisconsin

    OK, I think we're up and running with video from our Club Ride in Mercer. It's a short one, a little over 2 minutes and it's safe for the workplace. You'll see some of the same pictures from the other thread but this gives you an idea of the trails and surroundings. Enjoy...
