Biker Motorcycle Skis

Holy crap... this is awesome, exactly what I need.



Can you image what would happen if that ski hooked up on a rock or something?

I cannot find these online anywhere for the life of me... anyone more skilled at googlizing??

Why not just studded tires? Seems they stick like glue. Or maybe get a Sno-Bike.

Can you ride a sno-bike to the snow? Nope. Can you quickly remove the studs from your tires when you hit pavement? Nope.

One reason I prefer two wheels to four is the ability to carve a turn. Once you put training wheels or skids you limit the range you can carve at. I may not be able to ride one of these to the snow but it would be a lot more fun when you get there.

Can you quickly remove those outriggers to get to/from? NO!!! Quit dreaming, just wait out the crud and hope for an early spring!!!
