    Must watch..Mike Trapp & Yamaha Win 1971 Eagle River World Championship

    I remember that day well, as I was a senior in high school. I was in the locker room getting ready to play a varsity basketball game when a teammate came in and told me that Yamaha had just won Eagle River. He knew I would be excited as we both had 1968 Yamaha SL351. That was a great sled for...

    Old guys on Winders

Don’t think I have slowed down at all. Never any aches or pains, so I guess I am lucky. I only plan on stopping, when they stick me in...
