First Snow of the Year!!

**Yamahauler** · 10-05-2005, 08:06 PM

I woke up this morning to a lawn full of snow.
The power was off most of the day.
I'm getting ready to pull the sled out and put the trikes away (except the yamahauler)
I havent put the ski on the front of my bike yet, but It will help greatly with turning.
Those bearclaws get awesome traction in snow, almost too good, it's hard to get into a good donut.

Here a pic of a wheelie in my front yard just before heading to work.

Anyone else getting snow yet?

Ya, the snow kind of sucks right now. It's too warm right now, I think it was -3*C.
Still fun though!

How can you tell that Yamahauler lives in Manitoba??? Haha all of my family is from Manitoba so we know what it is like there in winter!!! We haven't had any snow yet here, some serious frost this morning though, it was -5 when I left for school. Pretty much every plant out here is frozen except for the good old coniferous trees!

**Yamahauler** · 10-05-2005, 10:05 PM

Hey Pistonhead, where abouts in mb does you family live?

Its too windy right now to go out and rip around in the snow, it'll pierce through any jacket!

Good thing you got that clutch fixed! I love winter riding, that is when I do most of my riding. Nothin' like sliding around in some fresh powder.

**DeePa** · 10-05-2005, 10:19 PM

WOW, it get's that warm up there? LOL It has been in teh low 90's here and if we get snow, this town will shut down until it melts which is usualy, one day lol

No landing snow here yet, just the stuff that melts as soon as it lands. I dont like snow, snow means that the trails are for snow mobiles only, big fines for riding those nicely groomed trails around here, and good luck outrunning a the police Arctic Cat 1000 sleds on a trike. All you can do is keep moving until the Arctic Scrap eventually breaks down or runs out of gas.
