Polar Bear Run 2004

Additionally we usually go on the "Polar Bear Run" on the 1st of January.  Most years it's wet, in 2004 it was snowing, we took the four-wheel drive truck.  This guy took his Norton.  There was also a Ural with sidecar and a dirt bike, and that was it, 3 bikes total..

This guy had ridden about 4 miles to get here but did it when the snow was only 1-2" deep.  Trying to go home the snow was 4" deep and the bike kept falling over.  After about 6 blocks he broke the exhaust pipe loose in another fall and accepted a ride home in the back of our truck.
