They are getting high centered, not enough ground clearance.  :rotflmao:

The moose clip is good but not as good as a Bulldog train!    :)

Those folks are lucky the moose went around instead of through 'em!

That first video reminds me of the age old truth: "If you're not the lead dog, the view is always the same" !

It's not funny, but for some reason I'm fascinated by and love watching that moose charge through the deep snow. I must have watched 10 -15 times already.

The deer herd are safe from the bulldog pack it appears.
Been a strange winter up here. Cold, but nothing much for snow. I would like to have a couple good dumps of snow to justify the season.
This street bike thing is all new to me.
Snowmobiles-I have a bunch of those.

They need a Panzer Plate to protect their vitals.

Same here. We haven't even had enough real snow yet to get the sleds out and have some fun!
