racinfarmer Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Another 40 miles for around 65 today. Breaking in a new motor on the XF and should have left a studded track on the ZR for lake running. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are sharp in photos, but look so much better in person you can't almost believe it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we'd have enough snow to actual pound diamonds and ditches, I'd have had 250+ on today. Only wish I had an ice track on that sled for ripping around the lake. Snow really isn't stuck to the ice, so need to ride with a head on you. It should be warm enough to change that this week though, if it doesn't all melt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great power, handling, and that gauge is the bomb. Love the 1.5 storm track. We were on some goat paths and I knew where we were at all times. I never used gps so this is new to me, comes in real handy if you don’t know the area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen one pick up that much detail when on those two tracks we took you through. Typically,you need a paper forest map to find them . Those trails out in the plains usually have to be down loaded. Jimmy,that area is always bad early season. I don’t like to ride that area until spring. It’s a shit show destination area. To crowded for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South of M-28 can be a real shit show with traffic. North of M-28 gets better with less traffic and more lake effect. People staying in Wisconsin ride up to the lake for lunch and head back. Tons of bars with great food on that lake. They groom the area that is 30 miles from me. That area becomes a ghost town in March and that’s when I ride it. It’s a really boring RR grade ride to get over there. Some of its fun,most runs along side M-28. If one is looking to put miles on the clicker,it’s really easy to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe its just over my head I never bought one. Friends have always had them. I have a older Sony that I used to use. It would stall and go real slow . The one on the poo is accurate at 90 mph in the middle of nowhere. Shows every little turn coming up. There were 3 2021 in the group for a few days. All very impressed with the upgrade. I was taking Edmo on some goat paths,and stopping to look at his screen. I was impressed it knew where we were. Some of these roads didn’t have numbers. Skidder trails if you will.

Skidder trails if you will. I had the first gen PIDD gauge and liked it just fine, particularly it being build in. The new one looks pretty awesome, as long as its intuitive and easy to use out in the middle of bumfuck. Biggest issue I'm having with mine right now is half the trails on my trailmaps software, aren't showing up, and its just not an easy to use on the trail imo. I'm still working on it, season 2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
