We got 18 inches last night her in central Ohio and are under a level 3 snow emergency. Had my 350x out for a little but could'nt move to well, snow too deep. I'll try to get it out later and have some fun. Sorry yours is down.

I could'nt even make it out of my driveway this mornin to go to work, so I'm stuck at home. My boss just called and said don't even bother trying to come in, nobody there anyways. Now I just need to figure how to get my wife home, she is at my parents. Told here not to try, she would not make it down our road.

You guys in Canada are used to this stuff. I think I seen maybe 15' of snow total last year. Better get your 250r going, us 3wheel enthusiasts live for this. "Git r done"

lol so true I love the snow. I also work at my local snowboard hill and they drive a Big Red. The guy has been using everyday for 12 years. Had no problems with it. I told him about R and he said I should drive it to work one day. Then I told him about it needing alot, and said "work 24/7, then bring it"

He said watch the roads though, R has alot of power he told me, Like I already didnt know that lol.
My first paycheck goes all the R then the engine will be going :w00t:
I cant wait to show him. Never heard about the "Get R done" saying, ill have to start using that. :TrikesOwn
