Last weekend was a busy weekend with lots of exciting events going on in the area. Sadly we also lost local racer Ryan Harper in a tragic auto accident. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Harper family, his fiancé Tonya Beauchamp, and all of his friends.
That said, what a weekend!!! Friday saw the Rapid River Relic Ride go off without a hitch. Even had snow this year!!! Saturday saw the Jaycees Jig-It Tourney take place in Escanaba. While this was going on, the Rapid River Relic Riders Show and Swap was happening in Rapid River. Saturday evening saw the lights come on at the Upper Peninsula International Raceway as the Great Lakes Ice Racers had some incredible racing on a track of pure ice. I still don’t know how they go so fast on ice!!! Here is some pictures and video from last weekend…
