Still riding in wisconsin

(gmarkham1) · (gmarkham1) **Join Date: Sep 2003** 10-11-2005, 8:02 AM

Just wanted to check to see who else was still riding in wisconsin? We were out yesterday and one guy was still just wearing shorts and rashgaurd, I was wearing a wetsuit, and was still quite comfortable, of course I stayed dry on my first set, so that sure helped!(dock start and finish) I did however get a nice bruise from the dock finish, came in a little hot!

Almost time to bust out the drysuit!

did that dock finish have anything to do with the driver?

fyi i had a case of the shivers for about two hours after that second set.

I think the dock finish was inexperience on both parts... I think I would have been better off just getting wet, you should see the bruise on my arse! Anyways, I actually didnt have the shivers at all last night...

Gordo,

We are on the water til mid December down here on the Chain near the WI border. Put the drysuit on about Nov.1st. Nobody has claimed we are the intelligent type but til the river freezes we will still rip it. Hypothermia is temporary.

we are running in janesville and madison yet, unfortunately they block the public boat launches before december, plus for my insurance I think my boat is supposed to be dry for four months out of the year so we go november to february! IF you ever need a third drop a message!

No problem Gordon always looking for new guys to ride with. What Lake do you ride on up there?

(gmarkham1) · (gmarkham1) **Join Date: Sep 2003** 10-11-2005, 9:46 AM

Are those the two lakes that split Downtown Madison? Not to familiar. I will shoot you a message when we head out so bring your suit and ski masks are a bonus

(gmarkham1) · (gmarkham1) **Join Date: Sep 2003** 10-11-2005, 9:59 AM

monona is on the eastside of madison and kegonsa is a little further south near stoughton.

Gordon,
We were out on Okauchee on Sunday and you need a drysuit but it's still very much rideable.

Gordon,
Not sure what Brook's username is on WW but yeah, I ride with him and Stan Tanner whenever I'm in the Milwaukee area for work.

Brook just got his 2006 VLX but I haven't ridden on is yet. We usually ride on Stan's supersport.

(gmarkham1) · (gmarkham1) **Join Date: Sep 2003** 10-11-2005, 1:56 PM

Hey guys, as ryan said we are still riding on Okauchee. Brooke's name on the board is dizzyg. We will probably be riding till the end of the month, depending on when they pull my boat lift.

(dizzyg) · (dizzyg) **Join Date: May 2005** 10-12-2005, 8:33 AM

nothing but fishermen in the way this time of year. I busted out the dry suit and it's not bad at all out there.

I just got into wakeboarding this summer, I was wondering where you guys ride, I just moved up to wisconsin just before the summer and live on a small lake in kenosha, westosha area.

my upcoming voyage for the winter involves living in colorado.

smylie, its time to ski dude......I went out friday for the last time this year, too cheap too by a wetsuit.

(smylie) · (smylie) **Join Date: Jun 2002** 10-16-2005, 1:47 PM

On the note of skiing i cant wait! Ive been practicing my corks and flips on the tramp getting my air awareness down. Im hoping for switch cork 9 this year!!! I'll be in colorado quite a bit too.

Hey Brooke,
Thanks for the pulls again today. The wake is sick on your new ride. Look forward to next summer when we can ride again.

(blazer54) · (blazer54) **Join Date: Jun 2005** 10-16-2005, 9:47 PM

who said they ride in the milwaukee area too? just wondering where everyone rides? being new to the sport/area and all

(ryan_shima1)

Brian,
Most of the guys I ride with when I'm in town live out on Okauchee Lake which is about 20 minutes west of Milwaukee (near Oconomowoc). I also go and ride with friends at Fort Fremont Marine (about 30' NW of Oshkosh).

(mjmurphy53711)

i lied, going out in an hour :-P

(smylie) · (smylie) **Join Date: Jun 2002** 10-17-2005, 2:42 PM

(dizzyg) · (dizzyg) **Join Date: May 2005** 10-19-2005, 12:37 PM

Anyone up for Friday? I have the day off and then I am gone for a week. The 21st!?!

Brooke,
What time are you thinking? If you want to go in the late afternoon (like after 2pm), it might be a possibility for me. My skaters race in the morning so I won't be able to go if you ride then. Stan doesn't get back until Friday but not sure what time.

Let me know - my cell is 414-732-8375

(gmarkham1) · (gmarkham1) **Join Date: Sep 2003** 10-19-2005, 1:18 PM

Brooke,
I could be game on Friday, what time are you thinking about going out? Let me know if you are counting on me being the third... I will call in to work! I do have to be home sometime in the afternoon though for a furniture delivery!

Tell you what the xstar with 4000 pounds is UNREAL!!! Biggest wake i have ever seen, and wish i could have rode it. But screw knees they are nothing but trouble and missing out on sweet wakes. Andy have fun rocking out in Cali.

(dizzyg) · (dizzyg) **Join Date: May 2005** 10-19-2005, 2:46 PM

I'm not sure for Friday, I'm free all day really. I don't want to get home too late, have an early international flight out of ohare saturday.
Let's see when Stan gets home and if he's around to ride or not. Otherwise I'm sure Lexi will be around, she has the day off too.

(dizzyg) · (dizzyg) **Join Date: May 2005** 10-20-2005, 7:38 AM

alright, I'm out for Friday. Sorry guys. I could go in the am but the afternoon no longer works for me.
I think I'll just sleep in and hope for good weather halloween weekend.

thanks for the help nice to see all the riders in wisconsin though, too bad everyone is so far north at least compared to me, thanks

Hey Brian I am not in WI but about 20 minutes South of you in Johnsburg,IL. If we can still get out I will give you a holla if your interested in riding with a couple newbies like yourself.
