And then, there is Moto-camping. We get to stay right at the hayfield, by a sweet creek with a swimming hole, and both camp and ride, all in one place. Heaven on earth.
I'll miss the snowbike, but not as much as I thought because . . .

as beautiful and fun as this all is.... I sure miss the snowbike and cant wait to ride it!!! gonna be a good year now that im not a noob anymore. winter can start tomorrow for all I care!
It's tough as riding the snowbike is definitely the most fun thing to do, just that when we stop, it is cold/really cold.
I will be really excited once November comes and it starts getting cold and the snow starts flying up north, then I'll put the snowbike kit and and be ready for when there is enough snow to go up and get that first ride in.
I agree, it will be a LOT more fun this season after having gotten that first, inaugural season out of the way.

I'm the other way...dirt first. I like riding rocks and nasty singletrack. I have a CR500AF set up for just singletracking, another CR500 set up just for ripping dunes, another CR500 just for the snowbike and an XR650R as a true enduro go anywhere and blast the freeway if needed as well. I like the dirtbike for the challenge, I like riding stuff that makes me feel really beat up and like I accomplished something when its done. The snowbike I feel is much like my sand bike...total riot and a full on blast, but when things are going well all and all it's pretty easy. You just cruise wherever you want to go and it's more power play than skill...don't get me wrong I love it but if I had to pick only one, Easy!!! Dirt!!!
The snowbike has helped deal with the depression that would set in on the really good snow years when everything is covered in the white stuff and I couldn't ride. I used to ride my dirtbikes in snow up to a little over a foot...then I would put it away and pray for spring...now I pull out the snowbike.
