Finally! For the first time in four years we have accumulation in Richmond, VA area!
There is ~6-7" on the ground and still falling at my house and I'm just waiting for breakfast to be ready before I go ride the Foreman. Had her out last night in 3" and had a blast.

I hear ya on that. I went out last night too and will probably go out again this afternoon. The last time we had this much was during hunting season and I was out riding in the truck instead of the quad.

Just broke something in the rear. GRRRR! Now I'll probably miss the WV trip next Thursday. I hate this crap.

Funny, I live in balmey So. Calif. (it was 80 yesterday), yet I can go to my local mountains most any time in winter and ride snow a yard deep. Did a snow ride Saturday, and there were all these huge IRS big bore machines running around. Guess who got farthest up the trail? Me on my little Racher! I finally high centered on a hill and couldn't get any further (there were no tracks in front of me though!), but nobody else even came close to getting that far.

Yep, I went out this morning. First time ever on a quad in the snow. It rocked. The break sucks.

Light weight is good for something. Staying on top of the snow is better than plowing through.

Schickie-What broke?

When snow is deeper than 4", Best time to re-try out the 4 wheelers. One doesnt have to have "very steep inclines" to challege a monster climber, and due to that, most failures won't result injury or damage to their rides [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

Don't know what broke. I was in a stuck and the bike bounced and then...POP! I shut it down and went inside all PO'd. Something in the rear end sounded like. I was in 2wd at the time. At least I was still in the yard.
