2021 Vintage Snowmobile Show & Old Timers' Run

It was a great year for the vintage snowmobile show at the 51st Annual Snodeo at Pinehurst Resort. There were 54 entries into the show for display - some very unique sleds, with the oldest being a 1929 Model A with Tracks that was used back in the day for mail delivery. Some also on display were Viking snowmobiles that were manufactured in Twin Valley, MN. Tom Seaberg presented his all-new Arctic Cat Rear Engine Rider that he built from the ground up. Participants came from Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota to show off their snowmobiles. After the display, awards were given away for 10 different classes.

Antique (1968 & Older)
Best Restored - Steve Schmidt, Verndale, MN - 1966 Arctic Cat Model 100
Best Original - Jeff Wayne, Dilworth, MN - 1966 Scorpion Trail A Sled

Vintage (1969-1980)
Best Restored - Joe Koch, Detroit Lakes, MN - 1973 Arctic Cat EXT
Best Original - Tom Habeck, Twin Valley, MN - 1974 Viking Vigilante

1980 & Older
Best Rat - Case Zachariason, Detroit Lakes, MN - 1970 Sno Pony Mini Mater
Oldest Operational - Travis Ingebrigtson, Mission, MN - 1960 Polaris Ranger
Bumpy Trail - Will Mortenson, Rice, MN - 1960 Polaris Trailblazer

Cutter - John Hayes, Breezy Point, MN - Carefree Sno Cruiser
Orphan - Jim Habeck, Belle Fourche, SD - 1970 Viking (no longer manufactured)

After the awards, about 30 of the sleds headed out for a ride and barbeque. Due to poor trail conditions, the ride went around North Twin Lake and stopped on the North side of the lake, where everyone was treated to a grilled hot dog and some tasty venison ribs - cooked on a cutter kitchen provided by Dave Guenther. The Nightriders Snowmobile Club would like to thank everyone who participated and welcome you back next year.
