Boondock Inn Vintage Sled Event 2026

[skiroule]

Day 3 was the vintage/classic show day at the Boondock Inn. I had planned to add a few photos and details here but I decided that the video I had been working on would do a better job of covering the day.

If you’re not into old sleds, you probably wouldn’t find this video very interesting. But if you want to see what this event is all about, or if you like seeing vintage and classic sleds and hearing the sweet sound of those motors, crank up the volume and enjoy.

The video runs about 5 minutes and hopefully will give you a sense of why this event is so cool.

Thanks for sharing Kelly. I'd forgotten about the side by side Ski Doo, plus the sound of the One Lungers warming up made me smile.

Congratulations Kelly on the "Best restored" award!! That Chap and the insight you gave into it was really cool! as it was truly ahead of its time. I know you had said there was no need to get into the mechanics of the sled, that was the only thing I wish had dug into a little deeper, was my favorite restoration thus far and am anxiously awaiting the next one! What is funny though is some of the sleds in that gathering although they are technically vintage it doesn't seem like that long ago which makes me vintage LOL!! Do you know if that black Kawasaki LTD is an Interceptor model? don't see many of those around anymore. Thank You for posting!!

Congrats on the Best Restored Award. I knew I liked that sled for a reason, LOL! Nice job! The weather was timely for the event, hope we had enough snow for you.

Seriously cool! Congratulations on the win!

At the beginning of the video hearing the ole single cylinders and then the ride in the woods really took me back to those days. Those days of no trails/grooming once a month and the slow pace going through the woods. After years of handling 4 strokes at speed that simple sound and serene woods was a welcome memory. I did not forget that back in the day the plumb of oil, fouled plugs, and trying to pull start till sweat was pouring down my forehead and heart pounding…
