    EV mountain bikes

    We purchased ours on-line. Have had great level of service from Aventon. Only downside that I am aware of is that the closest authorized dealer is in FM. We take ours to Fl in winter and had some adjustments made down there and there was no charge. Prior to these e-bikes I have always had...

    EV mountain bikes

    I wanted to try an e-bike due to bad knees. A friend recommended Aventon e-bikes. Wife & I purchased Aventon bikes and have put on a ton of miles on them and no issues at all but most of our riding is trail and some gravel. Great bikes for the $$. Have a bud that recently purchased an...

    Golf Cart Questions

    Had an electric golf cart at lake cabin for years. Only thing I did was to replace the turf tires with something with a little more grip (think wet clay). Agree with LB that dust is an issue even on electric. Would use air compressor about once a week to blow out all the dust in motor...

    Property Tax Petition

    Thread makes for an interesting read. I voted against the property tax referendum last time as I felt the structure / wording needed some refinement and hoping (not expecting) that our conservative republican legislature (if you don't believe me - just ask them) would provide meaningful...

    I'm in the market

    Have both the Browning Citori and Ruger Red Label in 12 ga. I actually prefer the Red Label. Son has the Browning Cynergy and that is a sweet O/U. Believe the Red Label is a bit lighter than the Browning Citori and stock seems to be a better fit for me.

    Bis to lose boat ramp

    Have visited with city commissioners as well. Wondering how many regret their vote without having input from general public. All have suggested it was simply to allow the project to be eligible for grants, etc. (free taxpayor money). I am not opposed to riverfront development as long as it...

    Bis to lose boat ramp

    I believe the Bismarck City Council approved a conditional sale of the land to allow the project to move forward I think the condition was that if the project that was presented to the city council did not move forward, the property would revert back to the city. By doing that, the group...

    Bis to lose boat ramp

    Do not have any numbers but it is on the bike path heading to Pioneer Park so I ride by several times a week. Seems to be fairly busy with a lot of boats, pontoons, and kayakers launching there. I also know that it frequently requires dredging to keep open which is a significant ongoing cost...

    Bis to lose boat ramp

    After the grants & "free money" run the course who will be left to pick-up the tab? Regarding flood protection, it would be interesting to see what it would look like with a Missouri gauge level of 21' as it was it 2011. Personally would not be opposed to the general concept if it were not in...

    Bis to lose boat ramp

    Have been in contact with commissioners and others involved in this project the last 2 days. Get the impression that there is getting to be a lot of momentum building in favor of this. The 2 questions I have asked in the conversations I have had is: 1. Does it have to be either or.... is there...

    Bis to lose boat ramp

    A Fox Island homeowner that is not currently in ND. I have visited with one Bismarck City council member and emailed the rest. I believe there may be room for compromise IF enough folks contact commissioners and / or attend the meetings. I believe that the only way to have them consider...

    Vets

    We have used All-Pets in Bis for over 20 years. We have been very pleased. Dr. Mike & his son Brian & staff have been great to work with. Our first wirehair contracted lepto at age 5. While we were aware that the outcome would not be good, Mike & staff provided an incredible amount of...

    17 cal vs 22 mag

    Have the Savage A17 as well. Absolutely a blast to shoot! I stick with the CCI A-17 ammo and have had zero issues with jams. Only downside is that it does not take long to run through several boxes of shells @ $0.25 / round. Agree with posts above that wind is an issue beyond 100 yds.

    Destination Fishing Trip??

    Have had the opportunity to do a number of destination fishing trips including Alaska several times, Cancun, Sarasota, Cocoa Beach, Lake Michigan, Texas, etc. Favorite was Vancouver Island, BC. Fishing & scenery was incredible, something I will never forget. Best part for me has not been the...

    Daytona 500

    We took a bus over so easy in and exit. What can possibly go wrong when 150k+ converge in a parking lot and can bring in as much beer, whiskey, etc. as can be carried and all try to leave at same time 5 hours later. While we had a blast at the 500, we can experience everything we saw by just...
