Default MN Governor...rides an atv


Soring of the DNR was driving a short distance behind the governor on Friday when the accident occurred. Soring said that the left tire of Pawlenty's machine hit a nine-inch stump along a narrow part of the trail, and then veered to the right slightly and glanced off a tree. The governor, who was driving about 15 miles per hour, stopped the machine about 20 feet further down the trail, Soring said. His report estimated $2,500 in damage to the ATV.
? How do you do $2500 damage going 15mph hitting a stump? Wow, maybe this isn't such good press for Polaris! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]
