Wonder what the bobsled speed limit was in that town back then?

I Don't know but the Pic doesn't do it Justice.

No Doubt they were "Bookin ! "
With close to a ton on Board

Even if they Averaged 75 Lb each that's 1500

Funny... I just realized I haven't seen any kid ever sled in this town. Hilly ss heck. Granted, we generally have mild winters and snow never lasts but still.
