im getting tired of it, here in michigan its melting and turning into nasty mud, the ground is frozen a few inches below so the water has no place to go. makes for some super sloppy mud. driveway is a mess. the snow just keeps coming, then melting. its getting nasty.

I like your gas tank, sweet paint job

cool looking 84 man. i have never used an 84, but my chain drive 83 is a beast!! Will out pull the 85 250!! no joke!! how those rears in the snow??

Sure makes going outside more fun.

We dragged a bunch of farm implements and spike tooth harrows
with ours yesterday. Chainsaws AND planted some western red cedars by the river.

Doesn't really seem like work when trikes are involved.

(separate topic)
I just wonder how everyone stays warm in the winters,
and what it costs.

Nice stack o' firewood, btw

what size and kind of tire is on the rear of it? I have an 84 and Im thinking of going with a more aggresive tire without working the tranny to hard

[coolpool]

A fine looking rig for sure. Seems like no one got spared the snow and cold this winter, Canadian or US. At the rate Spring is coming I'll be riding on the lake in May!

dr.joe, there's a reason why I bring up escaping to OR. The cost of living is extemely high in MT and the wages are extremely low, it's always been like this, but the cost of utililties has far surpassed the available work and wage now. I make half of what I used to 3 years ago per hour and on top of that only work 8 months out of the year last few years. And the politics are far worse than used to be here, i.e., impossible to register a trike. That's how mudbogger got his Tecate, the dude in Libby couldn't get it registered, but hey, I took your advise dr.joe check this out:

Yeah, I thought having some sort of formal paperwork for your trikes is better than nothing.

Glad it worked.

No sales tax here, so you can add 10% (or whatever) to your income right off the bat.

I can't really work/walk anymore so I rent out the house and live in my 'barn'.
Southern exposure, full tilt woodstove costs me nothing to run around the clock all winter
and keeps a couple hundred gallons of hot water ready too.
Also have some guy parking all kinds of equipment on the hill for 300 a month.

Then we do at least one 3 day festival every summer and spend all winter trying not to spend it.

...so there are ways to live cheaply or even free.

I think the elmira area has the lowest foreclosure rate so there's something
very stable about it too.

I picked this area off a map of the whole country.

My only other thought would be to leave the country.
Costa Rica or south coast of Spain.

Then again, the last time we had a 2012 type polar shift,
the pacific northwest was tropical.
