Greetings to the forum members, new member here from the Thumb, Michigan.

I must say I was looking around for a SxS, as this is my first one, and ended up getting the Pioneer 700-4. My first Honda was a '71 green 3 wheeler with the balloon tires, then XL250, a couple Magna's, and have been running a Honda Foreman 450 for 20+ years.

I must say the base price wasn't bad, it was the accessories that put it up there with the price of a cheap new car! But a few creature comforts are worth it as the body gets older and the aches and pains start.

Looking forward to plowing snow 'inside' a cab, even if it has air leaks, lol. Anyway, some good info here and I hope my Pioneer is as good as my Foreman, which I kept as it doesn't owe me a thing. Only ever done regular maintenance and it has never failed me.

We should organize a ride soon with everyone from MI. or anyone that would wish to join us.
An impromptu ride from Roscommon to Gaylord and back.
I ride mostly North of you, generally between the bridge and Grayling. My map views show a gap between Roscommon and Grayling, do you run a lot of roads to get North?

Then you dont ride Grayling. That's Roscommon co.
there are snowmobile trails that are closed for UTV there but there are some open. you can also ride the tank trails of Camp Grayling If u dare!
I have seen that they open up the Camp Grayling trails to the public once in a while, that'd probably be fun!

Yeah, I'm only showing the snowmobile trails for the area because I haven't actually ridden there and added more trails to my mapset (currently being documented in my OsmAnd thread.)
