Nopers, just straight up old geezer riding! :beer

Been gone from the boards for awhile, thought I'd pop in and say hi! I have a few shots from our winter trip to our cabin in Montana and some local riding here in Washington as well. No cool action shots as I'm usually the one with the camera.:(

It was a challenge getting to the cabin this winter, two feet of unplowed snow and draggin' a trailer makes for an interesting trip the last 17 miles in!

This is my 10 yr old standing in my tire tracks in front of my neighbors cabin.

This is my cousin standing in my tracks near our cabin...at this point I was pushing snow with the bumper.

After breaking trail with the truck, we got out some machines to have some fun!

It snowed at least anotherr foot while we were there.

And got so deep we had to phone up a cousin to plow the road with his dumptruck so we could get out!

Here's a few a little closer to home, up toward Port Angeles Wa.

Some buddies took me on some new-to-me trails, real tight muddy rutted trails.

I had a blast! .. the 350x performed perfectly, even at altitude! Poor guys I was riding with had never seen a trike in the wild before ... only glossy photos in magazines...

When I was pulling away from the 660 raptor on the logging roads, ....they started to take notice.:twisted:

By the end of the 8 hours of riding, I was beat, ...but they were beat up!! We saw some amazing territorial views, some cool wildlife, and a good time was had by all!

The trike did awesome and went from this...

hehe ..yeah I debated posting them, I know we're all anxious for summer (hit 72 here today!) but we had so much fun in the snow I had to throw em up before I forgot. :beer

Here's a few warm day shots from this weekend at Mason lake Wa.
