Looks like fun! Be careful though... two up on a one up machine with no helmets on is probably not a good idea.

Don't want to see anybody get hurt.

Looks like fun. Glad you're getting more than us up here in New England. I'll do some snow riding on the X2 with the ITP XTRs as soon as I get the tie rod clearance issue settled.

Polarises dont need no stinking winches. Just kidding. We missed an earlier storm of about 10" by about 60 miles. So far only 1/2" total this year. This sucks. How did the stock tires do in the snow?

Actually, they surprised me. i didnt think they would be that good, but in th ruts, i could go in 2 wheel drive without to much trouble. int eh deep stuff, i needed 4 wheel drive. id still like to get some xtrs for being stiffer tires and for the mud.
