    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!

    but think of the satisfaction of knowing you did it with a bike instead of
    that noisy gas guzzling snow blower you have >(:-}

    next they will be telling us the can plow dirt with it. Now back to
    searching for a snowplow for my chevy blazer....in arizona, duh!

    good grief, there's actually a distributer in the Phoenix area........

    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?

    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 :-p 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.
