ROTFLMAO!

1. It won't work in anything over 3".

2. You still have to peddle through the deep stuff to plow behind you.

3. How much do you get paid. I ain't doing that for free!

As long as he doesn't take that contraption and eff up the trails, he's
giving himself a workout. I don't see the necessity of it being used
anywhere, but that's just me I guess. I have ridden through plenty of snow
without the use of a "bike plow"

It has snowed a couple of times but never stuck. The plow is actually for
the place we have up in Colorado with nearly one mile of driveway to plow.
It really gets bad in late winter when the snow drifts continually and it's
non-stop out and back just to keep the lane passible otherwise it's a phone
call for the big guys!

but yeah, I'd make a killing though everybody that lives here "KNOWS' how to
drive in snow.

I think the idea is to clear a walking path w/o using a shovel. Hey it was
bike related....

Now if you put some gas powered rotary blades on that thing like the
Mach 5, you could use it to blaze new singletrack very quickly. Well at
least were I live. It took me 3.5 hours to cut .5 mile of trail the
other day.

Sweet! I knew if I held out long enough, that perfect snowblower
alternative would come along.
It could probably handle this, right?

Hell yeah, I moved that much snow in just 45 minutes! Not.

Is that CB or Gunnison?

If you're peddling [sic], then you're getting paid, duh!

CB last year. It was a day or so before another three foot storm.
We really only had about 2' on the ground here at it's peak and it's now
down to about a foot.

Of course, they went to the same snow driving school as the folks here in
Central VA. ;^)

Damn! We haven't gotten a foot total this year, and it was 60+ here
today and I had to water the gardens.

Nice, you should have dusted off your bobsled and wailed down that corridor.

If the snow doesn't either soften up or go away I may need to pay you a
visit!
Been riding much?

A few of the CB kids actually do have these sleighs that they stand on
dog sled style and kick like a scooter. They seem to get along pretty
once the snow is packed well and the front is good for cargo or a
passenger. Looks like fun!

Spinner I've been dealing with tendinitis in my repaired knee.
Didn't have any trouble with rehab till Nov., 6 months post surgery.
Since then it's been on and off. A good fun ride can knock me off the
bike (and give me a good limp) for two weeks. Still managing gradual
improvement.
