XCR INDY

Great riding in upstate NY last weekend. Only clicked off 230 miles for the weekend, could have done that in a day had I trusted the lakes on Saturday. Sunday was perfect, high temp in low 20’s with some fresh lake effect, but time was limited. Started in Indian Lake, should have trailered a little farther north.

Wife and I are spending the night in Jackman ME. Rode over from Pittsburg NH. A little over 170 miles.

Weekend in Pittsburg NH.

Wife and I went in ‘22. They just had the show a couple weeks ago. We thought about going because of low snow to ride in NY. We ended up trucking up to Pittsburg NH to ride. Either direction would be about 4 hours for us.

Yes I think it was called that even then. It was at Rolling wheels speedway outside of Syracuse, they just moved it up to Fulton NY. I had an awful addiction to old Polaris sleds over 20 years ago. Still have the family sleds, but sold everything else.

Is it a bad sign when pics from a vintage sled show become vintage themselves. My son and I on my ‘76 at the Whiteout vintage sled show in Weedsport NY almost 20 years ago now.

We even had an auto body/ custom painting class at our school . It was dropped just before I got up there. My older brother took it. I remember him taking in our ‘72 Polaris atx 335 hood, it was supposed to be a custom flame job but looked more like a bunch of bent up pitch forks. Wish I had a picture.

Me too in shop class at school. 😂

Gettin way back for me, early ‘70s. My mother giving us and local kids rides around the yard. The old Olympic wasn’t around too long, but the caboose was.

Not a very good pic, but my brother and I pretending we are racing on our ‘70 TNT 399 and ‘73 Tx 400. Still have the Tx.

Spent the weekend in Pittsburg NH.

Some decent riding finally in upstate NY last weekend.

My first brand new sled, ‘88 Formula Plus, chaincase was delivered bone dry. As I recall, that quickly became the least of my concerns with that pile.

If you’re thinking of selling the original, I’m interested.
