The Red Sled (Headed home on I-70)

Those of you who’ve hung out with us on tour have probably heard us call the van the “Red Sled.” This is because in rain, sleet, ice, and/or snow, it is virtually impossible to stop our fine steed in short order. The van’s brakes are in the front, but with all the gear loaded in the back, it sits on a bit of a “wheelie,” making those front breaks fairly ineffective. Nothing like a 5-7% grade and packed snow to test the skills of the savviest driver in the band (Anton) today… but we made it!
