Oh Yeah Baby! Arctic Cat Minibikes
7/8/2011 10:04:00 AM
I'm not sure what I love more: The utterly cool style of the Arctic Cat minibikes, or that one of the model names was Ramrod.
Ramrod!?!
They HAD to have laughed (a lot) about that one while sipping cocktails at the Legion after-hours, circa 1972.

I'll Soon be Back from Fish'n
6/29/2011 2:08:00 PM
Been on a fishing trip of sorts the past few months, compiling and writing the 50 Years of the Cat book. Which is why I haven't been posting as often as I'd like.
Thanks for bearing with me. I'll be back to "normal" in a week's time.
Oh, and by the way. It's been a great fishing trip. Caught a lot of nice fish, which I'll be sharing with you shortly.

I've been very late (and very lame) about putting in a plug for this season's IWA watercross races.
Already two races into the season and one of my all-time favorite Team Arctic racers -- Dale Lindbeck -- has notched the big "W."
Does W mean "wipeout" or "win?"
