Oh yea, i was waiting for someone to post up vids of this.

From what i hear the spiked tires give you more grip on the ice than you would normally have on the road with regular tires~

I would post up the vids of these guys doing this crazyness but Im blocked from youtube here at work

We went hoodin' this afternoon. I had my best cold weather gear on and could only go maybe twenty minutes. That is at less than 40 mph, I am betting on these guys going faster than that.

Hoodin- redneck term for pulling a car hood behind an atv. It is best to use an old one off of a wrecked vehicle. Thanks to "Captain" we have been doing a bunch of this the last couple of weeks

Hey "hughes22" watch all of the tabs on the underside of the hood. My kids and the neighbor kids had bad cuts from parts of the hood that were not welded down. I took mine and had my little elves finish the welds out and then coated it with a bedliner material. A quick fix is a piece of cardboard, carpet or a rug to make it safer for the passengers.

Ice riding the most fun you have on a motorcycle these weekend is a 3 hour ice race up in Wic.
