the ramps
this ramp system that VEGA built is the best setup we've tried for taking bikes to the snow.
1. they roll down off this and it is easily a no hassle no lifting job if you are by your self. we use a tiedown to keep the bike from rolling back down the ramp, just keep in mind when you kick the bike up in neutral and let go of the brakes she rolls down and you want to let it roll out so be ready.
2. same for loading, one guy, key is the nice supper gripy aluminum center ramp so no matter the weather without having to watch your step you stroll up beside the bike loading, when you have the ski up aginst the stop, leave it in gear and kill the motor, stands there while you put on the tie downs.
we've tried trailer, covered trialers, driveon / driveoff, this is still the best setup after 4 years of snobike hauling.
