Below:
:eek the ultimate Hero section:eek


very hard to tell how sharp the drop is

the killer part is the left hand turn at the base of the hill

some tracks were found on the incline . . .so the Hero section was used

note, the full grown pine on the lower left base of the drop



1052465919_Mojpd-X3.jpg




We did that section twice:thumb
The drop was more intimidating than it was hard:D

But, falling down was a definite possibility!


The picture does not do that hill justice.

Even the second time it was intimidating.

2011

January 23rd, 2011

The Steel Shoe event is a
3 hour motorcycle ice race
on Kettle Moraine Lake in Campbellsport, Wisconsin

Event proceeds support injured riders

Seventy (70) teams competed
on a plowed track on Kettle Moraine Lake

Each team typically produces two to four riders
who battle around the 6.1 mile track

Most riders are local fast guys
from all venues (short track, road race, woods, and motocross)

normally a few pros and up and comers also show up


Here are two videos,
the first is helmet cam,
with a neat wipeout at the end
http://youtu.be/gHNYklElrzw?hd=1

This vid is not as exciting,
music not as good (turn down sound if you are at work),
but it does feature my photos

this is cool

most of these riders can't wait till the lakes freeze over,

Arizona, Florida and Texas make room for Wisconsin

to be also known as a place for year round riding ;)

Most racers will run a late model motocross bike or a woods bike

The classes are broken up by engine cc size
heavyweight group (450cc and up),
middleweight group (201cc - 400cc).

on ice, it is all about the tires

Special tires are used with hardened v-cut screws
about 1000 screws in back and 700 in front

Each screw has a job
placed in the tire for acceleration, braking or cornering

Special fenders are required
