billcoe Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 does any one on here know where you can find swiss bob sleds for sale around the portland area? I gotta put this on the top of my lurker file...... BTW, no, and I've never even heard of one for sale, but my brother has one of those 3 wheeled pedicabs that are everywhere in Nepal. Quote
whidbey Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 this could be so fun...... but nope.. don't know of any. Quote
Dechristo Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 just curious... what would you do with said bobsled? Quote
griz Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 " Despite his late introduction to the sport, Shimer is a dedicated, almost maniacal convert. Bear in mind, this is a guy who borrowed $21,000 from a friend to buy a used bobsled-and then convinced his dad to take out a second mortgage so that he could repay the first loan. And this is a guy who dumped a girlfriend in favor of the sport. "I mean, I loved her," he says. "But I really love bobsledding." " from cnn link Quote
StickBoy Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 I don't know where to get them in Portland, but I bought mine at REI in Seattle a few years ago. You might try doing a search on their website. Quote

robert Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 Those I think you can actually get at REI. I remember seeing something like that near the registers at the Redmond location. They were red as I recall. Quote

And the reason you can't help them get some where you got yours is because it was in Swissyland? Quote
