Where I'm at it don't snow very often but when I was a kid we used to pull people around behind the 85 big red on a gokart frame with no motor. It was really fun going thru the mud with it. We used to wear those clear framed safety goggles. You know the dorky looking ones with the elastic straps. We had a ball.

me and my freind did something similar with a knee board only it was behind a gokart. we got the bright idea to drag eachother around his lawn on his kneeboad (no snow) but the kart had an auto clutch 3.5 briggs not enough tourqe to take off so we had to put slack in the rope and jerk the rope to get going well neither of us were wearing helmets and he yanked a 180 and uses the whole 20' of rope while i was on the board and i was about to jump off when the slack cought up and WHACK i slamed my head on the ground and was almost knocked out. we went back to the spot and there was a dent about an inch and a half deep in the lawn where my head hit. after that we figured we should quit so we went back to driving just the kart.

the best is to help your friend get his sled unstuck in 3 feet of snow, while your pushing on the grab bar and hes runnin along beside it, jumps on and you hold onto the grab bar, get dragged, but the best part is when HE falls off and you dont know and wonderin why your slowin down halfway up the hill....
TRUE STORY!!

Currently Trikeless- but I have a LT250R
i dont know how many of you have ever snowmobiled in the wyoming togwotee area, but they get quite a bit of snow, i went riding out ther last year, when you bury a sled, the only way to get unstuck is to roll the sled over on the windshield and onto the trak again and start on fresh snow. its a riot to see al the unexperienced riders try and dig themselves out of 3 feet of powder. and pull and yank for an hour or so. i love it

9 or 10 years ago, my bro and me pulled each other around on an old slide behind a pickup. We had a couple ropes tied together and were quite a ways behind the pickup. The rural farm to market roads where we grew up were covered in ice and snow. You never see a car anyway, especially when it's icy so we just went up and down the roads. You couldn't go too fast and keep the truck on the road! You could lean and go from one side of the road to other and even out into the ditch. My bro's then girlfriend (now ex-wife) was mad at him for doing something so dangerous and stupid as she said. My dad and sister got to sledding with us too. Never forget it, good times.
I remember back in the early 80's we tried pulling each other around on a small piece of ply wood behind the ATC70 when we got a good snow one year.
It doesn't ice often enough around here, so you remember the good times!

we have pulled all kinds of things behind atvs, snowmobiles and trucks. tractor tubes work really well behind them all. especially in the suburbs. used and old plastic gas tank cut in half for a sled that works pretty well unless the sno is really deep then its juts like a plow, think the best thing we ever used was an old truck hood or an old hog feeder lid with car seats mounted on them those were funt o ride on and u floated really well over the snow
