Abstract: A personal winter vehicle has a frame which includes a front portion and a rear portion. Preferably, the front and rear portions of the frame can flex with respect to each other. An operator-controlled motivator for generating torque, such as a pedal crank, is mounted on the frame. A drive assembly is attached to the rear portion of the frame and is mechanically coupled to and receives torque from the motivator. The drive assembly preferably includes a drive wheel rotatably attached to the rear portion of the frame and coupled to the motivator via mechanical coupling, and a track disposed around part of the circumference of the drive wheel. The drive assembly also may include a guide wheel rotatably attached to the frame and disposed in front of the drive wheel. The track is also disposed around the guide wheel. The front of the vehicle may include a ski which is turnable by operation of handlebars. Alternatively, there may be provided a front wheel also having a track.
