Sign-ups are coming in nicely. Brian Nelson has just confirmed that barring any unforeseen circumstances he will be joining us for this event. He intends to ride his 1979 Cross Country El Tigre I-500 sled alongside the rest of us on modern-day sleds! Brian says this will be a great opportunity for him to get some more ride time on his sled before the big race that is now just a few weeks away.

Tom, this sounds like a great event. Can you fly me up from Texas? I really need some seat time before the I-500. And remember not to loan out #28 by accident, but Brian might get a kick out seeing it...

Glad your joining us Roger, your daughter-in-law stopped in and signed your son up too. Rainville...we'll pick you up at the airport if you can join us, it would be a great chance for you to ride peacefully with Brian Nelson, prior to the two of you both trying to finish the I-500 ahead of the other.

Join Cody on our ride and wish him well on the remainder of his season, and, his upcoming appearence at the Winter X Games in Colorado.

Sorry we missed you RL. Our store is located on a major trail. With some advance planning, I invite you to stop by and we'll go for a ride on some of the demos that we have here most times of the winter.
