I remember that we did have quite a lot of snow out on the trail and it was also very cold – in fact at -20 – we stayed overnight at Pete’s home in Summerland, as did Bob & Brett. – They had to park their Sherco 4T bikes by the hot exhaust of the truck before they would start next day!! We also had a vintage Trial on the Saturday – great memories – As I recall we started the event after the two minute silence to mark November 11th and I played the “Last Post” on my harmonica . – ( wish I had a video of that)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
