Hus Ski Ki! in late March
Posted: Sun Mar 27, 2011 9:01 am
"Hus Ski Ki!" is what Francois from L'Ange-Gardien, Quebec proclaims when getting on his Hus Ski and driving it through the snow.
Yesterday I had an opportunity to resurrect a 444 that had been in my shop since the fall. Last ran over a decade ago, it needed some new points, a recoil installed, a new key switch and some fresh gas. Once started, it blew the obligatory mouse nest out of the muffler all over the shop. Within a minute, that smooth 252 JLO was purring like a cat.
"Hus Ski Ki!" and away it went through the 17" of heavy snow we received just this past week.
I can tell spring is here as activity on the forum has declined significantly in the past few weeks. Many of you might not be back to visit the forum until the fall, so here is wishing you all a great summer and I'm already looking forward to next winter.
