87sheerips Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 ICE FEST 2011 in CANADA's MEXICO (The best state ever) Ok fellas, I have been wanting to put together a motorsports party on the ice for a couple years now. The time has finally come, and the ice is finally safe to make this happen. The plan is to plow a drag strip and a circle track so no matter what kind of studs you are running, there is fun to be had! (Still on the hunt for a plow guy so if u have an ATV with a plow, bring it along!) Bring whatever you want. Sled, ATV, dirt bike, go kart, pit bike, small vehicle (lol), whatever. The only rules are to bring a good attitude and plenty of beer for when the riding is done and the bonfire begins! We have at least 7-8" of solid ice. Weather permitting, I would like to barbecue as well... So bring some food if you want to cook it up. This will be BYOB, BYOF so dont ask us for a beer or food... We are broke from spending money on gas/repairs for the sleds all winter I really hope to have some fast bikes turnout, we have a PERFECT drag strip location as you can see below. We live on a steep hill so it might be best for some to unload at the public boat launch. See picture below for a map of the area. (PM me for exact directions) Myself and Bansheebobby live here and will be putting this on. I will be running my 350 dune bike with picks for drag racing, Bansheebobby will be running his 4mil trail/duner with screws for the circle track and messin' around. We will also have our sleds out there. My 2001 Pro x 600 and Bobs 2003 Cat F7. Both are studded. Location: Long lake, Union MI (3 hours west of Detroit, 45 minutes south of Kalamazoo, 45 min NE of south bend IN, 2 hours east of Chicago, 15 minutes east of Edwardsburg/Niles) Date and time: 2/5/11 @ 12:00 noon. This will last until I most likely pass out next to the bonfire. Due to safety reasons, please PM me for exact directions. Your GPS will not get you here correctly so I will need to give you personal directions depending on where you are coming from. Let me know if you have any questions, otherwise get ready to have a blast! My number is 248-431-6342, feel free to call me anytime before 9:00pm ALSO, if you want any custom parts I will hook it up. Shoot me a PM if you want to make it down as well as pick up any custom goodies! -JD Yellow star is our house, red dot is the boat launch. The lake "Long lake" is 2 miles long.
