  • A group of three wheeler enthusiasts set out for a snowy ride on Honda three wheelers. Mostly 350X's, but there was also a 250R, a 200X, and a couple quads.
    Last time we did this we had some kids with us, so the pace was slower. This time it was just the guys, so we got to rip a little bit! As this is the tail end of the season, the snow pack is beginning to soften up, so the second you get off the trail... you're in trouble. You'll see a couple flips and low level crashes... but nothing serious.
    This ride took place up in the Adirondack mountains on private land owned by my buddy Doug. He puts in some major time to get these trails groomed as nice as they are. It was a TERRIFIC day for this and I'm very thankful I got to go.

    Looked like a great time. Awesome machine’s. People forget 3 wheelers made those trails way before 4 wheelers were around. Wish I was there!

      That's right! Three wheelers set the stage. They definitely dominated out on the trails this day!

    Enjoyable footage! BUT!
    I DO have to take exception to your comment “three wheelers are dangerous “
    I sat on my deck often watching my wheeler. 36:58 I even snuck around corner of my house thinking I might see my Big Red acting ‘dangerously’. NOTHING!
    So the next afternoon, I took it for a ride. Sure enough, we did a back-flip while attempting to climb a sand pit!
    It wasn’t the machine! It was ME! I was the dangerous one!!!
    One of the many reasons I seldom hang around with me anymore! 😂
    Sorry for the long winded comment, just wanted to set the record straight.

      Thanks Art!! Glad you liked it! Ha! I've been known to make some bad decisions too when hanging out with myself. I might need to take a lesson from you and minimize that also...
