More Than a Ride: Growing Up on Snowmobiles
As a Midwesterner, it’s almost a requirement to snowmobile. I was introduced to the sport as a very young girl by my grandparents, and from the beginning, snowmobiles were simply part of my life. I was always surrounded by the snowmobile industry, and stories from the trail were woven into many of my childhood memories.
Dreams are meant to be lived out!
We always had sleds around when I was growing up and I got into snowmobiling at a very young age. All of my brothers were into snowmobiling too, and my late brother Mike was heavily involved in racing. He competed in both snowcross and drag racing, and watching him — fueled my own passion for the sport.
