I just recently got 5 feet of snow dumped on us, and all of my 3 wheelers are in an old barn and i'm afraid it's going to colapse on them, i guess i'm going to have to shovel the roof off but if i get up there it will probably collapse! I barely have any time to do anything about it beetween school and sports, and i cant get them out because of the location, Man i'm really screwed!!!!! :(

better do it quick! Im about afriad our roof is ready to leak (or worse: collapse) and that things brand new (last summer). It sucks when youve got -feet- of snow and then a nice slippery layer of ice!!! Love it :rolleyes:

im not sure where your from but up in minnesota where we normaly get alot of snow (not this year). we have whats called a snow rake, im not sure if you know what im talking about but its basicly a extendable 20'-30' pole with a angled plate on the end (like this -------\) this way you can reach up and "rake" the snow off without acctualy getting up there. just thought if you could get ahold of one, or make a red\green version, it might help your situation. hate to see good trikes get wreaked

Here's what you do. If you know a big storm is coming, tie some rope to the handles of shopbrooms, rakes, etc... and set them on the roof in incriments. After the storm is over, go out and pull the brooms off the roof and hopefully most of the snow comes off too. I thought of that in an earlier post like this one. I don't know if it will work or not but its worth a try.

If it is a barn, chances are the weight of the snow would be to great to try and pull off by hand.

Oh man...Where is the trike when you really need it?!...Well, in this situation...You need another trike to help get the other trike out...Hmm, sounds like you need to buy one more just for pulling the snow off the barn to get to the other trike...LMAO :D .

After college, Im heading straight north, the Oswego area. Most of my family is near there and they get a lot of snow. I can't stand the heat. I break out sweating anywhere when its over 80 outside. I love the cold though.
