    df your further ahead on the suspension game than most so you know what it's like riding a dialed in sled. Maybe I was being a little hard on the smart shock concept, sorry if I offended you as it was not my intention. All my buddies have experienced a fault with their smart shocks either it be...

    df, I have riding buddies that have the cat I act system and one that has a 22 doo with the smart shock package. We switch off to get comparisons and chat about each package. Plus were fortunate enough to have couple of shock/suspension experts that are way smarter than I am to rely on. The one...

    I didn't mean to ruffle any feathers, but I stick to what I said. Sure, Poo and Doo hold a large market share, I don't disagree, but they could be so much better. Safer for the end user with better shocks and springs. These stock shock packages are good for one set of bump frequency at one...

    I disagree, it's been Poo and Doo chasing Cat and the current procross front end is still better than Poo or Doo latest and greatest. Poo is getting closer, but Doo has a long way to go. Poo would be on par if they went to a better shock package, the Walker Evans 2.0 is a gimmick of a shock with...

    How "fast" is trail 14 - Big Bay to L'Anse?

    I agree with above statements on trail 14. Another thing is the solitude, you will see nothing but trees and snow for miles and miles and miles.

    Something You Don't See Everyday

    My cousin harvested a cat a couple years ago in New Mexico. It's live weight was 190 lbs. and with a very similar photo angle it looked every bit as big in his photos as this one so I can believe this to be an actual photo. Those cats can get big and this is a big boy.

    Johndee website down?

    Just returned home from 6 days of riding the Western UP. Doo is most likely the most popular sled with Poo not far behind for sure but plenty of AC/Yamaha sleds out there as well.

    BRP Exome Radiant Helmet

    This season will be my 3rd with the Mission. Whitedust it has never had any icing inside or out in over 5,000 miles and temps from -10 to above freezing. I've worn it in every configuration but have settled on the e shield without the breath deflector. CKX makes a balaclava that leaves your...

    How many trips planned and where?

    Two trips booked so far, the first Jan 7th - 14th staying halfway between Seney/Grand Marais. The second in the western UP Feb 25th - March 4th staying in Toivola. It's been a few years (like 14 years) since we've been West, looking forward to getting back over that way.

    Just looking for some feedback on bluetooth communication headsets. which ones are good, which ones are no good??? Thanks in advanced.

    My group (7 of us) have been using the Packtalk bold units the past couple of seasons. Range is going to be different depending on the trail. When on a grade with extreme snow dust a group of seven can get spread apart pretty far but the clear line of communication is never a problem between the...

    Just looking for some feedback on bluetooth communication headsets. which ones are good, which ones are no good??? Thanks in advanced.

    Up to 25 riders can be added to one group with the Cardo Packtalk Bold. The new communicator from Cardo does not use an external antenna but has all the same features as the Packtalk bold.

    Rising fuel costs hinder planned trips?

    Nope not my group. We figure our weekly trips will cost double what it cost a few short years ago. We do bring our own food and that helps. Back in 18,19,20 and 21 our weekly trip would cost around $600-650 a guy, this past season was up to $800-850 but this upcoming season we figure it be...

    Gas

    Here in North central Ohio fuel is over the $5 mark as well. I see no slowdown in the amount of traffic on the roads, I'm rural with 2 major state routes running through my small village. One going North/South the other East/West. Camper traffic is still strong along with drag racers headed to...
