I was chatting with my neighbor and it turns out we raced an IM together (it was his first and only). I think it was also Dev's first IM. It was Penticton in 1991. Well my neighbor runs down to his basement and showed me his medal. His brother-in-law apparently worked at the Foundry and made man-hole covers for the winners - he also crafted one for Ken!! Thing weighed about 80 lbs. Pretty cool IM trophy for sure. Wonder what he could use it for.
