Snow is for riding in!  Up to 8" is a blast on your usual trails.  Here mid-winter after a good thaw and freeze we put a few sheetmetal screws in the knobs and go ride on the frozen snowmobile trails.  Not an iceracing setup, just 3 in the rear center for straightline traction and maybe one in every other one.  The snowmobile trails get nicely whooped up and it is a blast to wail down them. Lots of fun. Cam.

I have only seen snow 3 times in my life and never actually seen it fall only on the ground, would love to drive/ride any vehicle in it looks like tons of fun

Snow is cool if you riding in it on flat ground. I've done some snow tracks on mountain trails which have been a right test. Where the track is cut into the side of a slope, the snow is deep as on the inside of the track and shallow on the outside, but also very slippery on the out side. Hairy stuff when you'r looking at straight drop of 5 or 6 hundred feet.
 At Temoana (other side of the Devils Staircase) one day we had to ride through snow that started off at just a few inches. As we progressed the stuff got deeper and deeper. Past the point of no return, we plodded on at a slowing pace till the snow was waist deep at the easiest passable places. Ended up having to stomp a way through then retrieve our bikes and ride through. Stomp, ride. Stomp, ride....

  Long Day that one.

For snow rides we usually stick to spring and early fall. Once the ground is frozen it's pretty tough to go anywhere with a hill (or even stay on 2 wheels for that matter).  In my riding area, snow is at it's best in the spring.  By mid-april the ground is thawed and the trails are mostly melted but muddy.  It is sunny and warm but on most of the single track there are shady areas with 300 yd long patches of mushy snow up to 3' deep.  It's pretty good traction and you can blast through huge snowbanks without a care.  Climbing long hills is sometimes a team effort.  As you loose momentum in the deep snow, your buddy riding in your path behind you slingshots around to take the lead and break trail. And so on. Big fun. I'll take som pics this spring. Cam.

The snow is getting deep here, so I have been skiing. The snowmobile trails are off limits to motorcycles during the winter.

There was too much snow to ride in, especially on my 100.  Mother nature dumped 13 inches on us.

I've got 11 ski days in so far but unfortunately no snow rides this fall. Have to wait till spring. Cam.

I went snowboarding yesterday, but it was too cold to actually enjoy it.  At the top of the mountain it was -12F.

[Johnniespeed]

The coldest I have skiid in is -29 F . You cant have any skin showing or it gets frostbite.
  Kxcam22: do you ski at Sun Peaks or Silverstar ?  Or do you just drive to Whistler or Apex ?
 I have some location envy about the Canadian Rockies. You are fortunate to live there.
 My KX500 is just sitting in the garage wishing it could go for a ride.

Alan,
  You're probably still wearing sunscreen.  I'll get my revenge - most of those blind old people driving motorhomes with canadian plates and clogging up your roads and golf courses are from my neighbourhood.  I'll send them to you every winter.  
JS, I get a family seasons pass at Sun Peaks each year. It's about 40min from town.  Silver star is about an hour away.  Both are easy drives.  Whistler is about 6 hours but they have been getting lousy snow.   Sun Peaks has had the best ski conditions in the province the last few years so we stick around.  Still waiting for the real snow to happen. Cam.

I grew up in Colorado, went skiing once broke my ankle and decided I would stick with motorcycles!
