More snow-filled 80's pic's.........

Well, as promised, here are a few more snow-filled pic's from the 80's.
WOW, a group of Indys and my lone Ski-Doo at The Spot Restaurant in the Mount Forest area.
My riding buddy Kevin Maggs and his brother Rob taking a break 1/2 way between Gravenhurst and Minden.
My first winter of riding with Hal Armstrong back in the 80's, and yes , he really knew how to make that 400 Indy fly!
In the early 90's I met Mike Schmidt, a great grass/ice speed guy! He let me take his Team Vincent Mach for a run down Puslinch Lake. It is a great little lake near Cambridge where a lot of guys hang out when the trails are 50/50 for riding. The guys do runs all afternoon and compare radar numbers. Yes, this MACH was VERY fast! Mike is currently the mechanic for Sloot/Kodiak racing and Ric Wilson, but he still gets out on the lake to show he is #1 on the straight line runs! (That's me on the sled, Mike took the pic.)

Love the pics Phil. Believe that was the winter of 87.

Kevin needed a 650 to ride with me on my 400, same today.
