The construction of the sled at Vemewa is ready.
Now Polypla can start mounting a skin from Lexan.
The wheels – which we’ll mount later – are for the trip down to Key West, Florida once I leave the polar ice.
This adventure will be made possible with help of Clymer.com – Motorcorner.nl – P+Steel and many more!

After finishing the polar ice stretch the journey continues overland towards Key West, Florida. Therefore the rear of the sled will be fitted with an axle, wheels, tires and a brake rotor from a kart. At Vemewa they are building an R1 break calliper on and also the connection pieces for the axle to go with the sled.
