but after 10 minutes of being back indoors the snow had all ready covered the tracks id left in the road

Only about 4 inches here. Anybode else have problems withice forming around the rim of the idlers? Maybe i need to take a link out of the tracks to make them tighter?

Well done Gerwyn I see by the wheels it's been for a drive. How did it cope? I got a build up of snowaround the idlers. I think maybe I need to take a link out to leave less space around the idler where the snow built up.
