That's what I said, when I called our local Can Am/BRP Dealer to schedule an Oil and Filter change for my Spyder. You've probably seen them in the showroom or on the road. The thing is a "gas" to ride, like a snowmobile in the summer time. Ours is nine years old, bought new, almost trouble-free...

Well, ask the question and get a thousand answers. It's subject matter that has been discussed here from time to time and I thought since we're into the Off Season, it'd be a good time to discuss. The video runs about 16 minutes so maybe a beverage of your choice would be advised. (consumption...

We're moving into Early Spring in some parts. How's your lawn look? Some of us care too much, while others hack it off with any means necessary. I'm somewhere in the middle. I like a nice lawn but not to the point of being down on my hands and knees looking for problems. Anyway.... Who pays for...

We have a local company called "Sunk, Dive, and Ice" which recovers vehicles that fall through the ice during the winter months.

It's been awhile since we've had a Snowstorm like this last one. Maybe not since Gramps (pictured above) had to put chains on the Studebaker! We all remember the storms of our youth and they always seemed larger than the present. Snowed in for days, no school, everything frozen including Dad...

Looks to be a 5 to 6 inch snowfall overnight to get things started for the Green Bay-Appleton-Oshkosh areas. Plenty to come yet and the winds are picking up so I'll wait to do any clean up later in the day. A Winter Storm Warning for now, Blizzard Warning for tonight and Monday. Some area...

OK, our Snowmobile Season is winding down so it's time for a little foolishness, or is it? Last week, a family out for a drive near the Washita River in Oklahoma spotted an 8-foot-tall creature walking across a power line easement. An Oklahoma family had a rare "Triple-A" Bigfoot sighting...

With the big Boondock Vintage ride scheduled this weekend, here's an opportunity to help the guys (and girls) bring those relics back home at the end of the day. For anyone who rides, owns, tinkers with, or used to ride the old iron, you know the importance of a well stocked collection of tools...

Since most of us have one, I thought the following was worthy of posting. As we know, there's various reasons for owning a truck such as a Toy Hauler, Work Truck, Commuter and or Lumber Wagon. Some are kept spotless yet others are showing their age as the years stretch on. The following are the...
