So winter is just around the corner, and I know lots of people lock up there quads when the snow flys, but I love riding in winter. Does anyone else ride in the snow? If you stud your tires you can realy haus azz. I usually ride trails that are packed from sleds and other quads, also ripping down a logging road can be a blast. There are also a few tracks plowed out on the lakes around here. If anybody is up for a ride let me know.

Winter is fun riding, I personally like the deep snow. Mud tires work surprisingly well in the snow.:d

Use maxxis 4snow tires on your sport quad, they work amazing, been in/on deep snow, where the 4x4s were stuggling and just blaze, 3rd/4th gear tapped.

this one is me on my 450 climbing a hill, in spots the snow is drifted and the grizzly i was riding with was up to his racks

a Bubba Keg with dark rum and coke don't freeze either and the wood stove in the shack helps.

In a Dakota R/T, down by the South Sask. River
I ride all yr round, who cares if its -35, just dress warmer. Sometimes i bring the demo home and plow the whole street. City of Stoon is slow on plowing. No big hills to climb in flat a$$ sask, so its fun bustin thru snow covered feilds.

I'm all geared up to ride the sturgeon, I'm in when ever the ice is thick enough.

Picked up some studded tires for my YFZ. I am up for some snow riding, since I got little to no seat time this summer!!!:rant:. Pretty pumped to try the ice.
