    Trail 5 Big Bay / 14 Big Bay to Marquette / 8 back to 5

    No. you have sidnaw, L'Anse then Big Bay along the way. No problem getting to any of those locations on a tank of gas. If you take the southern route of 8 east to 5 north you will need to get gas before taking 5 north. There may be gas in Michigamme but I'm not sure. I always gas up at the gas...

    Trail 5 Big Bay / 14 Big Bay to Marquette / 8 back to 5

    We trailered to koski. Trail 5 south from there is being groomed today. My friend grooms that trail so I knew it was due and we didn't want to add an additional 100 miles or so. We have done that in the past just didn't yesterday. Definitely doable though.

    2/8 Manitowish, Minocqua, Rhinelander update

    We really need the snow. That would be great for the area. Was out today so I can confirm. Towns and road crossing are brown mud snow. Even up in the northern part of the U.P.

    Trail 5 Big Bay / 14 Big Bay to Marquette / 8 back to 5

    Rode these trails today. Unfortunately I wasn't feeling 100% but pushed through it. Rode with my son and a friend. 5 Was good north to Big Bay although it was thinner than what I'm used to seeing especially in the corners. Groomer stopped and talked to us while we were taking a tailside break...

    Trailer Tires PSI

    My tires are 80psi max and I run them at 70 psi unless I have three sleds loaded, which is I almost never do.

    Trailer Tires PSI

    I'm not a mechanic but what I have learned yes you can. The sidewalls are still stiffer but reducing PSI will help. Just make sure the tread is flat against the pavement so you get even wear (not wearing more in the center or outer edges from under inflation). Mechanics, please correct me if I'm...

    Ski Doo 2023 Release Feb 14 1PM

    That's ok as long as it will have smart shox. That upgrade is worth the wait. I have them on my Mach and love them. Game changer for me

    Ski Doo 2023 Release Feb 14 1PM

    I find it odd the new models are coming out and some don't have their 22's yet. I'm waiting on a 22 grand touring from Doo. If they release the 23 GT with Smart shox I don't want the 22 and will wait for the 23. Why buy the old model knowing you won't ride it till next year anyway and now newer...

    Trail 32 / Gwinn

    Well after the weekend I was hoping someone would have ridden this area. I'm trying to find out if any fresh snow has fallen on the logging road section that was so bad weeks ago. Want to avoid if possible. Any input would help thanks

    Mileage from Iron River MI to Munsing?

    depends which trails you choose, but I would say mostly tight woods. I have a post asking for trail conditions for trail 32 which I believe is part of the map Kevin included in his post. I have heard but can't yet confirm there is roughly 20 miles of logging roads (ice/thin) on this trail. That...

    Club insurance question?

    They also had a claim / suit where a rider hit a groomer and I believe claimed groomer was at fault. I can’t figure how that could ever be the case. Those groomers are lit up like Christmas trees. Apparently it’s an ongoing case which I believe the insurance company at the time needs to continue...

    2022 Mach Z Straightline Racer Or The Ultimate Cushy Power Cruiser?

    I did this from day 1. As I previously stated I'm coming from an Apex with power steering so even after installing the snowtrackers (for me) it was heavier than what I was expecting. In fact, I rode the mach the very next day after riding the Apex and I think that highlighted the heavier...

    I & M Canal Trail

    I remember those times too with my son. Now he's 30 and leading 90% of the time. Brought a smile to my face. Congratulations and good job!

    I & M Canal Trail

    In bold...this even applies to adults! :p I lost a riding bud because we always ended up riding more than 125 miles a day. Oh well, I wait all year to ride and only have 2 or maybe 3 trips a year. When I'm on a trip I'm going to ride even if that means high mile days.
