And I thought the clutching on my sled was complicated. ;)

It's interesting how many similarities there are with trail grooming and farm equipment. I can see down the road quite a ways with farm equipment high cab height. When they can do a clear pass I hang the shoulder to give them room. Some roads simply don't have shoulders. Those are tough and...

Very nice overview I have not heard of Bi Pap. Riding bud has used a C Pap machine for quite a few years. It has been a game changer for him. I don't ask a lot of questions, but I know the benefits are beyond just plain sleeping better. What I do see is noticeable. We normally base out of a...

Sounds like you live close by my location. I'm able to see the towers from my yard and TCAAP is just down the road. BTW, as a side note to the discussion. I probably put on about 100 feet of riding around home. That was all loading and unloading between trips. I could live in a snow desert...

Funny you mention that fact. I didn't use the ol noggin too well when I bought this home. The closest trail is about sixteen miles so I'm already loading up every time I go to ride. I usually figure I might as well go a little further once I'm loaded and ready to go.;) I'm joking around...

Cool topic. @indy_500 I'm interested how the riding was around Ashland? We drive through there but have not stopped to ride. It was odd to see more snow and less fishing on the bay this year. In fact, I'd say the snow across northern WI looked pretty darn good this season. It was tempting...

Honestly, it's not really a new thing to have limited orders. That seems to be the new norm with production scheduling. Last year was pretty much the same in that aspect. I have to admit that I'm not a big fan of the tight ordering process, but I guess it's what we have right now. I look at...

I sorta expected the supply to be limited. With that expectation, I set aside some time around the initial order time. The online ordering isn't new, but it was changed a bit this year. I wasn't familiar with how the process was supposed to work this year. I have to admit that I was getting...

Wondering if anyone else ran into the beater running down trail 3 on Tuesday. I've seen cars, trucks, and some questionable vehicles on the trail over the years. This one was notable for a couple reasons. . . It wasn't stuck. (First one I've seen that was still moving) It was on the trail...

Riders make the choice, it's not the sled. Riding off trail in closed areas with a loud can isn't an automatic function of the sled. It's too bad the discussion continues. We are talking about people causing the problem and we talk about it a lot. It's the old 80/20 rule. Eighty percent of...

Rode the entire stretch last week. I know it was showing closed early in the week but can't confirm if the status changed on the app.

Been doing this method with some modifications. I cover the floor with BCX and use guides along the edges of the door ramps. I planned to use old tracks for traction up the middle of the doors. All I had laying around were too tall. I have used old hyfax that I cut down into about two foot...

Sounds like a fun trip. We ride most of the area from Watersmeet north on a regular basis. @mjw66 , We love the Copper Harbor ride, but I wouldn't recommend this one over a weekend and a "schedule". I think your group would miss some of the fun just trying to make the trip. I will also reiterate...

The section west of the lake going north looks like part of the old trail. I'm not familiar with Ride Command. I'm curious which establishment has a trail going right to their door? It would be a real slap if that is one of the Snowriver locations.

That is an interesting situation with the boat. Wood does change dimension when it changes humidity. It makes a bit of sense to keep the wood in a higher humidity environment. I have to admit that 60% is surprisingly high. You are getting into cigar storage range. Do the seams split...

Nice work. I would like to thank the community and GRTA for all the work on this project. I am impressed by the team effort to overcome the issues created by the actions of a single outside land owner. I think we ran into some of the "new" trail last season. The section between Sunday Lake...

Congrats @SHOOT2KILL , on the retirement. I did that a few years ago, but I wasn't very good at that job. I'm probably doing more now with "other" stuff. I guess the biggest difference is the ability to schedule down time. I just need to figure out how to quit filling the down time with...

Dang tough timing. Running the shoulder of 2 certainly isn't an option although it would show big increases in a certain revenue stream. The new owner really played this one on the community. The changing stance and then ever increasing demands just kicked the can around until it was too late...

Nightmare deal. That will put the last nail in quite a few businesses. Losing the old trail already hurt rider volume. The loss was significant. We used to play in sled traffic and worry about finding rooms. Anyone that has been a "before and after" rider knows how much volume has changed...

Lawyers wouldn't want to play for sure. The good news if I'm reading it right, the issue seems to be long term storage and initial starts. I wouldn't be too concerned about actually riding. Overall, it's a bummer deal. That is a pretty good sized quantity of machines. It will take some...
