SAN DIEGO (AP) - Minnesota snowmobiler Levi LaVallee will try to
make a side-by-side attempt to break world records for the longest
motorcycle and snowmobile jumps on New Year's Eve. The Longville
native will try to make the concurrent jump with Robbie Maddison
over a 300-foot water gap in San Diego. LaVallee was set to make
the jump last New Year's, but he had to back out after he was
seriously hurt in a crash two weeks before.
