PastaPilot 17 Posted January 3, 2008 Oh man does this guys video bring back memories. I was 15 years old riding in the snow covered tight New York single track on a KX250. Here's somebody else on some other bike. Not to many people dimented enough to ride a 2-smoke MX bike in the woods. I sure liked it. http://media.putfile.com/First-ever-snow-ride Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 561 Posted January 3, 2008 Nice video. Brings back fond memories. Everybody used to be demented enough to ride a two-stroke in the snow, back in the days when you were sort of demented if you chose to ride a four-stroke. I rode local snow at Corral Canyon back in the eighties on a KDX 200(also on a KX250); we seemed to have more of it up there in the winters back then. (Oh noes! Global warming?) I remember riding enduroes up in Washington state in January in the swirling snow around Shelton. I was following a rider on my minute in one event and when we got under a canopy of low branches, he stood up, looked back at me, and grinning, reached up to grab a branch. He pulled down on it pretty hard and let go. By the time I reached that spot, the load of snow from the tree landed on me. Hahaha The last I rode in any snow was a small bit of it up at McCain a few weeks ago. Maybe we'll get some this weekend! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dirt dame 561 Posted January 3, 2008 Harleys in the dirt. we laugh now, but way back they were "the dirt sleds" of enduroes and desert. Glad I wasn't around then. My bikes are too heavy already ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chief Gunner 2 Posted January 3, 2008 That video reminds me of home (Maine) lotts of fun but the damn cold & snow gets old fast. I'm so spoiled now, 19 years in Sun Diego We used to put wood screws in our tires on bikes and three wheelers for riding in the snow and on the lakes. check this video link out, I bet even snowmobiles would be pressed to keep up with these lunatics! http://cc.msnscache.com/cache.aspx?q=72684...2&FORM=CVRE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
