From Indydan and his "Contest Thread". Hope you don't mind Dan!
Well............I am going to try and say this without getting to emotional.
There has been alittle inside story developing about this goingvertical SW memeber that even he doesn't know yet.
A few days ago a snowest memebr contacted me VIA Private message, and he said he would like to get this gentalmen with the handicap sled up and running so he can get back out riding with his son.
He also said he would pay for the motor. ( choked me up to say the least ).
I ran into a guy a few years back in Cooke City that rode a crazy Mountain extreme sled and he was paralized. It was fasinating to chat with & see this guy ride his sled. He strapped himself on and away he went.!!!!
Ok, I was alittle concerned that his son was already a growen man and maybe this was alittle outside the age i was hoping to see for a father/son/daughter project.
At any rate, I am going to work with this kind gentalmen ( who didn't want to be mentioned ) who made the offer.
And we are going to get him a motor rebuilt and get him & his son back on the snow.
This will not affect the contest.
I do not want to any credit for this, This was not my idea.
However I must say that it is sure a heart warming feeling to be involved.
I would like to thank you all for this, this is a Snowest thing.
And a part of all of you snowmobilers as a whole are to credit for this.
without the business from Snowest this wouldn't be possible.
Thanks, Dan
