@Wander:

Global Fatbike Day Turnout- local community/trail.

Good turnout!

Santa Claus came earlier this year.

Since I go ski touring over the hollidays, I bought my self, finally,  a Avalanche Backpack (28L).

Today I made a small ski tour, the weather was bad, but it was a good training and a lot of fun as well.

Good luck… Been carrying one for some years now up the mountains, have been buried last year for the first time, mine didn't release. Had a lot of luck, the guide only been buried up to the knees. Found me quick with the Pieps and been able to dug me out... second birthday

Oh my gosh, that's a terrible experiance, can't even imagine how you must have felt…luckily you made it out!

Frozen lake ride.

Have a couple days off and went to case some snow. The first part I spend in the Martellertal where I made the Madritschspitze (3265M) and the Plattenspitze (3422M). Yesterday evening I changed the location to the Langtaufertal, but it snows and has poor visibility, looks like a resting day.

A few pics…

I'am very sorry for the links, but I do not know how to post the videos directly. The links lead to my private photo website and show in the first video a nice panorama on the summit of Madrtischspitze, the second shows the brutal wind doing the accent to Plattenspitze, and the third shows the panorama with heavy wind on Plattenspitze.

Thanks @marlin 
Have a nice trip and hopefully some more snow.

Sundays are fundays with my boys in the pit.

Beautiful day with plenty of fresh snow to try and power through.  Ended up having to drop my pressure to 1.5 psi just to make it up the gentlest of hills.  Maybe it's finally time to swap to the winter tires!

took a day off on tuesday (nobody knows about it though ) and went for a nice couple of rides…loved it!

the famous „eigernordwand“

Fantastic conditions for fatbiking today.  Glorious sunshine, temps nicely below freezing, and a beautifully packed trail.  Possible rain next week, so had to make the most of it!

It looked like this yesterday and it is still snowing and 4 degrees Fahrenheit, where it would normally be 60 this time of year:

Keystone's base is at 44". Wishing I was somewhere the snow would do me some good, and resolved to get out there this weekend!

I just discovered this thread because I’m wondering if anyone here is into Snowbikes?

It’s essentially riding a dirt bike in the snow but instead of tires you replace them with a ski and a track….

My dad and I just picked up 2020 Honda CFR450R’s with 2021 yeti snowmx tracks.
Here’s a couple pictures.

Now that looks like my kinda’ thing Brock

How do they handle in the snow?

And being 450’s they’ll have a decent amount of power, enough to get you into all kinds of trouble!!!
