Snowmobile on a treadmill

[EastcapeAngler]

OK, let's say you have a sled on a treadmill, the belt is designed to run in the opposite direction as your sled, countering your forward movement precisely so as not allowing forward movement.( We'll assume no friction is a factor of ANY kind). Will you need to wear a helmet? Goggles? Will handwarmers even be necessary? Will flatlanders & trail riders even know the differrence? If you see some tracks leading off into the trees for a boondocking experience,are you allowed to leave the treadmill? & will you eventually slam into the back of a groomer in front of you,(Which will NOT be keeping up momentum with the treadmill), mortally wounding all riders in the group? Will the kids on Z 120's pass you cuz their sleds weigh less?
& what about stopping to knock back a cold one???
Any answers??

Definatly need a helmet. Carbides would slice through the belt pretty quick, and you would launch off into a wall!

Friction not a factor! But I forgot all about that,, Dunno if you can consider slicing the belt "friction"

going to get interesting???? Red why can't you drink and drive??

 

[IMSICK]

would you need to clip only the tether from the sled or would you have to clip on the one from the treadmill too?

I don't drink & ride,,, but it's because I can't stop once I start. Not only do I lose interest in riding, but I think it's dangerous in my scenario.

Ain't a darn thing wrong with booze in moderation

Wouldn't the skis be far enough apart to straddle the track of the treadmill

Helmets are always a plus

But here's what I wanna know... How many MPG would you get on one of those?

OK, let's say you have a sled on a treadmill, the belt is designed to run in the opposite direction as your sled, countering your forward movement precisely so as not allowing forward movement.( We'll assume no friction is a factor of ANY kind).No Friciton? If there is no friction there is no traction, no traction no movement Will you need to wear a helmet? Not moving, NoGoggles? NoWill handwarmers even be necessary? Treadmills need an electrical source so you won't be too far from a warm house if not in the house in the comfort of the garage if you get cold so, NoWill flatlanders & trail riders even know the differrence? No sensation of forward movement, bumps or corners, YesIf you see some tracks leading off into the trees for a boondocking experience,are you allowed to leave the treadmill? Only with snowshoes and a rifle, Yes& will you eventually slam into the back of a groomer in front of you,If your near a house with an electrical source and heat, Your certainly not on a trail so then what the hell is a groomer doing in your yard? Call the cops, and have them Rodney King him. Answer NO!(Which will NOT be keeping up momentum with the treadmill), mortally wounding all riders in the group? Will the kids on Z 120's pass you cuz their sleds weigh less? No, he will pass because you have yours mounted to a treadmill and your stationary
& what about stopping to knock back a cold one???( for a stationary snowmobile on a treadmill I think I would have a cup holder and tv remote with headphones so why stop for a beer? Answer No
