Holy crap.....when is the rain gonna stop? We had record flooding a couple weeks ago, Cross Plains, Black Earth, Mazomanie....last week record flooding just to our northwest, Reedsburg, Baraboo, LaValle.... Now there's rain in the forecast for the next 8 days as well....We did water rescues in...

Our trails opened up Friday at noon and close tomorrow, (Sunday) at 6am. There ya have it folks, the 2017-2018 season was a doozie. Highs in the upper 30's and sunny coming on Tues and Wed. We had about 4" on the ground Thursday before the big blizzard hit and totally pumbled us under another 5"...

I think my wife and I will point north again for our annual anniversary fall ride. We're considering heading for the tip of the almighty Keweenaw Peninsula. I'm looking for suggestions for a 3-4 day stay. We'll most likely be on the motorcycle and we'd like to do a couple of day rides from...

I'm holding out til some rains wash the salt off the road, but I gotta admit, today was awful tempting to get the Spyder out. Who' couldn't wait any longer?

Finally had a decent afternoon to fire up the Weber grill. Brats and thick cut pork chops over charcoal....MMMMmmmmmm.

It's looking a little bleak, but hopefully John and the weather guessers are right about next week's storm. Our trails were open in our "region" of Dane county for 4 days, but closed this morning at 6am. I managed to get two nights of grooming in so last night the trails should have been pretty...

Heading up to the U.P. on the bike later this week. Gonna stay in Tomahawk Wed night, then Hurley for two nights and take a couple day trips outta Hurley. Hoping to head up to Bayfield and out to Madeline Island on Friday for a while, Porcupine Mts, Lake O The Clouds etc... Then Saturday we'll...

Ontonagon hotspots Gonna be heading to Ontonagon on our motorcycle trip in a couple weeks. Anyone wanna share their "must do" and "must see" ideas? Likely only be in town for a couple hrs, then we're off to Silver City and Lake of The Clouds, then stopping in Hurley for the night. What say you...

Can anyone recommend a couple places to stay around Wausau? Heading to Hurley on the bike in a few weeks and Wausau looks like a reasonable stop for the first night. We'd probably be going up thru Abbotsford, so anywhere in that general 25 mile radius/area would be fine. I'd prefer to support a...

Did anyone else do the download? I put it on my laptop last week. I din't see any benifits to it at all, at least not for what I use my machine for. Some stuff is moved around but not sure it's worth all the hype

I am so sick of paying nearly $200/month for two smart phones. We have US Cellular now because they seem to offer the best coverage. (South Central WI) I wonder if people are branching off toward the "sub providers" that Walmart and Target offer. Maybe it's time to go back to the old school cell...

First off, we're on a budget....Would you rather take several smaller, closer, cheaper vacations, or save every cent you can and blow it all in a week in Mexico? We thought about going to Mexico in 2016 for her birthday and our anniversary, but we'd have to save all of our "fun money" for about...

This made the Madison news today. Sad situation for all involved. People, don't follow so close. http://www.channel3000.com/news/woman-dies-in-lake-mohawksin-snowmobile-accident/30437070

Hey John, when ya gonna start the pool on when the spool in the yard will be buried? For some of us, it's the only snow we see...

Yeah yeah, I know...this is a sledding site. But does anyone else watch/feed birds? I ask because today I peek outside at the feeders and they're loaded up with blue jays. I haven't seen a single blue jay since spring. Something changed overnight!! Gotta love fall in WI.

My wife and I will be headed up to Minoqua this Friday-Monday, 12th-15th. Gonna take the motorcycle. Wondering if there are any "must sees" in the area. Looking to take a couple nice day rides on Sat and Sun. Waterfalls, caves, overlooks, bridges, nice curvy roads, food stops, nice bars...

The Mrs and I are headed for Minoqua Sept 12-15th just to get away for a few days. Anything going on in that neck of the woods that wknd? Planning on taking the bike if the weather allows. Rick

So, the Mrs. wants to go down to Chicago for a long wknd. I know absolutely nothing about the place, other than I hate driving there, and it has a couple airports...LOL. So, I'm looking for suggestions of things to see and do for a couple days. The only idea I had was Navy Peer.

Well, considering there is no rideable snow in half of the state, this "event" should wind up being a big success for the almighty DNR of WI. http://www.wkow.com/story/24492503/2014/01/19/wi-dnr-be-safe-during-snowmobile-week Ride safe if you have anything (snow that is) to ride on!

Sure, the northwest flow is great for all you lake effect snow hogs, but the rest of us in the Midwest would like to see a few more flakes of snow sometime yet this winter.....enough already, share the wealth would ya?? LOL.. Been in the deep freeze for 3 weeks now, it warmed up for this wknd...
