I rode my "ole" Husky 610 wxe last winter on the ice. She don't turn so good...

This year I'm anxious to give the MC250 a whirl. We had beautiful clean ice on the lakes here for a bit, but not quite thick enough. Then it got warm and snowed and screwed the whole deal.

I've been watching craigslist for some used Fredette tires. Last year I was looking for 21" and 18" for the Husky. Everyone had 19" rears for sale... now all I see is 18 inchers... go figger.

I finally just screwed my own tires last year, but I can tell ya that my buddie's Fredette tires hook up WAAAAYYY better on clean ice. Can't bring myself to lay out the cash though. For just play riding the self screwed tires are adequate.

Those Trellborgs look like they'd be great for frozen trails. Give us a report.
