Benny's Pedal Pull and more...




The much anticpated Great River Thresher's Day Pedal Pull arrived today (Ben has been talking about it for a whole year). Ben was the first puller in the 4 & under division. He managed to get a "full pull" on his first attempt and tied with 5 other kids. In the "pull-off" more weight was added to the sled and each puller gave it their all. Ben ended up with a 20 foot, 1 inch pull and got a ribbon for participating. So much fun for all. Next year Ben and Nora will both be ready to go in the same 4 & under division. Check out the footage in the video above! Lots more pictures below too...
