30th Annual Relic Ride - Vintage Snowmobile Run

The Long Riders Snowmobile Club hosted their 30th annual Relic Ride at the Jack Pine Lodge north of Manistique, MI on February 12th, 2022. The Upper Peninsula Film Union was there to lend a hand with traffic and we shot some video of the event. This may be the largest vintage snowmobile ride anywhere. Check out these great old sleds. This is only a fraction of all the cool snowmobiles that took part.

You just have to love the throttle jockeys who show up on a vintage ride ride with newer sleds.

Everybody and their brother were making snowmobiles in the 70's!!

Alot of nice iron, especially nice to see a couple Rupps.

Some of these vintage snowmobiles that I see, people in this community did own some, they were so well used, none of them are running. Brings memories of my youth, thank you sharing.

Lots of nice old iron! I hope that JD Gator on tracks didn't go with you though, since it is 100% illegal to be on a groomed snowmobile trail!

Well well well, I finally found a video of a Suzuki Fury under power. 9:30
I should be horse whipped for selling mine.

Would be nicer if you didn’t add the music. The sound of old sleds is way better

[johnpierce]

Nice show of sled to bad most were not in the relic category and only one scorpion 😢

[robertburt]

I forgot how many different models from the 60-70

[tomchrisfield]

Those early sleds, you had to be athletic and mechanically inclined to keep them going.

[russhfan]

At 2:41 that's my Nordic although yours is prettier. 1095.00 brand new in '71.

[markbarber]

Anyone who has been at a super motocross station event when the dome is closed will know what this smelt like

[cjackfly]

6:21 to 7:43? Wondering if that was a conscious decision or???

[Playsinvain]

My gosh…i sadly couldn’t watch…got sea sick.

[Snowmannorth]

WOW…that music is just over the top. Poor choice IMHO. Sorry, can’t listen to this any longer!

[vintagesavoiur]

Who picked the music for Pete's sake?
