Hmm, the highest temp for this week is going to be +16
and the lows dipping down to -15
spring? What spring?
snowmobile territory..
some day i'll figure out pictures and post the pictures of a machine i've seen.
you attach a motorcylce to the top of a twin track assembly and a ski mounts to the forks. the tracks a driven by the chain drive on th bike.
the only thing i didn't see was a way to stop, i didn't find any sort of brakes.....
maybe that's why it never caught on...1979 XS1100SF Special.78 E motor/carbs, Jardine 4-2 exhaust, XS Green coils, Corbin seat, S.S. Brake lines, Hard cases, Heated grips.

i love sleds, all the power, all the speed, more air-time, less pain if you botch
the "manuver".. snow is a softer landing then pavement.

Winter
I am so sick of this winter, record snow falls and extreme cold temps. In my heart I want a fast thaw and early spring but with the snow we have on the ground, everthing will be flooded. Guess thats the price we pay up here for not having our yards full of alligators and snakes year round. LOLmack

Snowed yesterday, snowed today, gona snow again soon I bet. For i can not remember how long usually after mid Feb here it has warmed up not this year.To fix the problem one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed.
