• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

How I spent my Winter vacation (videos)

They graded our gravel roads; unheard of in February! So, for the cabin-weary, here's a video of me taking a spin around the block and running our fields (second video) on my ATV. The original size of both is 720 x 406 pixels, so viewing any larger obviously reduces focus. I recommend reducing your screen and then grabbing the corner to decrease the size to sharpen to taste.

These are probably excruciatingly boring to everyone but me, but what the heck. If you've got a few minutes to go for a ride, here ya be. I'm disappointed at how the GoPro smooths out the still very bumpy roads, and especially lessens my lurching ride in the hayfield. Who knew that my infamously large dead furrows and live furrows after plowing would eventually make for great ATVing!

PS: The three yellow signs at the end of our driveway read "Look Twice, Save a Life. Motorcycles are everywhere." They're put out by ABATE of MI and I'm happy to say are all over around here.

:D Wow!! :clap:
You're making me want to go get another Grizzly! :thumbup: With those straight and level roads: have you ever "pinned your Quad's ears back", and found out what it can do?
Your roads remind me of the area around our hunting camp in Upstate, NY Just North of Oncjota; we used to ride all the way up to Dannemora Prison... just to get lunch! (75 miles!)
 
Glad you enjoyed it! I'm not a speedster anymore, so, no, I haven't opened her up. Right now, the roads are too slimy, anyway. Very squirrely (can't tell from the video). We're also illegal here in MI. Not supposed to be on any public road unless you're within a mile of an authorized area for ATVs. No one does anything about it around here (knock on wood), but a group going any distance would be asking for it!
 
That looked like a lot of fun and you could tell it was pretty bumpy. Being familiar with the trails etc as you obviously are would help.

Thanks for posting them.
