Am I the only vintage sled blogger around? I've never seen any others... If you're a vintage sled blogger drop me a line.

I'm totally bummed by all this rain but the weather report says snow Sunday night through Tuesday, that sounds like real good fun except that I need to work... Stupid work always getting in the way of my fun.

I spent some time the other day listing all the sleds I've owned. You've got to remember I bought my first sled in December 2001...
'76 TNT 340e, '70 Olympique 12/3, '72 Olympique 335, '71 Nordic 399, '69 Panther (380?), '80 TX-L, '80 Centurion, '80 Blizzard 7500, '80 Blizzard 5500MX, '80 TrailCat (dang I've had alot of '80 sleds), '71 Panther 303, '81 El Tigre 5000, '86 Panther 500.

13 sleds in 7 years...
That doesn't even start to take into account sleds I almost bought or should have bought. Like a '69 Panther 440 that had 160# of compression in each side... That sled was part of a 2 machine deal, the other was a '74 Panther 295 rotary which is the sled I really wanted even though it had almost no compression to speak of...


Anyway its pouring, the rain makes me depressed think how much snow this would be...
