only a couple more but i cant get them to load? is there a dayly limmit?
it was a blast & the weather was gr8 26 satuday with sun & bout 22 on sunday
the shore of the lake is about 6miles long & the 1st vintage sleds that left made it back as the last 1s were leaving so our line of sleds was pretty long & not every1 went on the ride lol it was truly insane to see all the nice & junk sleds running around plus all the old snowmobile suits & helmits
i seen 1 centuar, 10 minibikes (5 rupp) 1 black widow, 3 go joes, 1 trucker (mine) over 500 rupp sleds & thousands of others
