I went to a little vintage show in East Grand Forks today and took a few pictures of some of the sleds. Here are a few race sleds

Went out today to do some trails in town (East Grand Forks, MN) after our 45 MPH winds yesterday and took a couple of pictures of the BR 400 and our new last year skid. Some drifts were over 4' high and almost as hard as rocks. The temp was -14 when I started.

Last March south of Grand Forks, our snow is not like that very often

No current pictures, but we have a 1993 Bombardier BR400 with a 250 HP Cummins Turbo, the front blade is 16' wide when the ends are extended and the tracks are over 14' wide. We had a new 10' X 20' skid made by a local machine shop last year that works great. We groom a lot of road ditches in MN...

Ski Do had the Double Eagle with two engines, Polaris had the X2 also with two engines, they were for speed runs, not consumer sleds Here are a couple of pictures of them that I took at West Yellowstone in 1970 The Ski Doo won that day with a speed in the high 90's, the Polaris was right...

There are a lot of people on here that have ridden for years and many that ride lots of miles per year. About how many miles do you think you have ridden? I figure that I have ridden about 60,000 miles in 47 years

We took a snowmobile trip out there in 1967, I don't think I could help you much as things have changed. Those were some serious mountain sleds back then.

Any ride is a great ride to me. Riding for almost 50 years I could tell stories for a year so I will go with my last ride in late March this year. Two of us were going to trailer from Grand Forks to Fourtown, MN and ride for the day. We left Grand Forks a little later than we had planned and had...

I came across this on another web site, it would be great to see it happen, I have lots of memories of the races in the 60's, 70's, and early 80's http://www.arcticinsider.com/Article/Return-of-the-Winnipeg-I-500-Cross-Country

Here are a few Polaris prints that I have also.

Here are a couple of items that I found in my basement.

Here are a couple of pics from my yard yesterday, I don't remember this many leaves down in mid August before

This article was in our local paper this morning, for those of us that have been around snowmobiling for a long time it looks like it could be an interesting book. http://www.grandforksherald.com/event/article/id/269769/publisher_ID/40/

The orange sled and the purple sled are the same ones as in the pictures above, we have had them since 1967.

Here are some old Vikings that we had stored for years, We put them on a trailer and I sprayed them off. I don't know if much will get done this summer but one of these days they will run again.

It sounds like you got hit pretty hard down there, we ended up with 5 or 6 inches of wet heavy snow and we still had quite a bit on the ground. It is getting to be time for it to go.
