2Moto wants to turn your dirt bike into a Snowbike
By replacing the stock wheels and suspension with a ski up front and a snowmobile track on the back, 2Moto hopes to bring the dirt bike riding experience to the snow. The company sells conversion kits for most popular enduro and motocross bikes, as well as its own complete models. 2Moto's clever suspension system enables the track to be moved far forward,
under the engine, allowing the bikes to translate their original
balance and handling to the snow.
We enjoy snowmobiles, but having grown up on bikes, we always feel
something is missing, namely the light-weight, long-travel suspension
and ability to throw the machine around beneath us. It looks like Snowbike resolves these issues. We can’t wait to ride one.

This seems like an awesome concept, but I think I might have liked it more if I didn't see that amazing snow hawk! It makes me wish it would snow in New Orleans.
You could probably get this fast enough to stay afloat in the gulf. The Snow Hawk is cool, but it's twice the weight.
