Any "quick...

    Apex blown motor

    So I hauled a friend's 2016 Apex with a blown motor over to Meyer's Yamaha in Ishpeming today...got me to thinking, I'm not sure I can ever remember an Apex with a blown motor....at least not in my experience....so just how common an occurrence is this? (Meyer's already looked at it and said it...

    Some people

    So I go for a little ride yesterday and I pass a group going the other direction over around Shingleton. Last guy in the group has a GoPro Hero 4 attached to his helmet.......and he's riding a mid-90's Ski-doo Formula......so I'm thinking "Dude! Do your back a favor and invest that $$$ in a sled"

    Dear Hillary, As a woman I would like to be able to support your bid for the Presidency but I simply can't. The last Clinton I had dealings with left a bad taste in my mouth. Sincerely, Monica Lewinsky

    The Pub

    Always the good Irishman Murphy had been drinking all evening with his pals. So he gets up to leave and falls flat on his face. He thinks to himself "Jaysus, I'm sloshed". So he tries again and again falls flat on his face. He figures well what the Hell.......it's only a block home, I'll crawl...

    Unusual Sight

    I was going north on Trail 7 south of the Buckhorn earlier today and got passed by a southbound group of all RX's.........RX-1's and Warrior's.........couldn't see if there were any RS's mixed in........had to be 12 or more sleds in the group.......I'm guessing some kind of club ride?

    Gas Gauge

    Any other Viper people have a gas gauge that acts the complete and utter fool? You can fill the tank completely to the neck and the idiot light will be on for 20 miles while the gauge reads empty. OR you can ride 90 miles and it'll read completely full.........I WISH........sometimes the gauge...
