    What Happens in Vegas....

    Very cool! I was in the USAF and stationed there, not a great assignment when you're not a gambler lol! I did the Hoover Damn tour several times, every time family or friends came to visit me anyway, loved it! I swore I would never go back to Vegas after my time there but after some friends of...

    TOYOTA SNOWMOBILE OUT ON THE TRAIL SUNDAY

    We came across a guy pulling a two place trailer on the trail heading out of Sidnaw into the gorge, he was buried, took us forever to help him out of the jam he got himself into lol! He said he was following the GPS, which I am sure he was, common sense needed to kick in a lot sooner than when...

    How long was she on Oxy? I think that’s only for the first week, maybe second week. That’s according to the pharmacist. She said 3-6 days, I was like no way lol! I’m just about out, I’ll make it to Friday probably, then I’m supposed to take tramadol, which in the past did absolutely nothing for...

    EUP report!

    We've been going up to the East since the late 80's, on an early December trip, that hole is there almost every year, the Beavers can cause a lot of damage the little bastards! There has been a lot of people hurt here, it has been just a small dip in the past that caught a lot of people off...

    what's happening in snow belts?

    Based on what we rode in this past Sunday in the East, Mondays warm up will have very little affect on the snow they have, might actually help settle it up a little.

    Oxygen vented shield?

    I wish I would have seen this a week ago lol! I was going to buy one but after talking to a lot of friends that have the Oxygen, they said it's hot and you must have it plugged in or it will fog. They all ended up buying the Mission Helmet so I checked those out, I felt like there was a very...

    Extended Forecast Looking Great.

    I rode the East opening day in whiteout conditions, we have been going early December since the late 80's, it's the best for early season riding due to the amount of trails that are roads. The trails up there will be amazing tons of good snow! We are going back up on the 11th-15th, I am sure it...

This is a few miles north of Seney on 450, the depth doubled as we headed farther north, had lunch in Grand Marais, headed back to Seney and drove back home after a quick 180 miles on the trails. The...

    Total Knee Replacement question!

    I’ll be 62 10 days before my surgery. Up until Labor Day weekend I was biking 10-12 miles at least 4 times a week. Now, I’m in a lot of pain but doing 5 miles 6 days a week on an Echelon Spin Bike. Not able to push like I was before the final damage was done Labor Day but better than not biking...
