i was curious about how it would ride iin a bit of snow, so i took it around my tiny back yard, and just as im entering my garage, it slipped from under me, at like 3 mph, and fell on its side. the front tire wont rotate anymore, and i think its because the front brakes are locked on. Is there something that usually happens to a bike when it falls to cause this, so that i can have an easy fix or did i just get unlucky?

It may help to know what kind of bike it is, but if its built around a dirt bike then you may have either twisted your forks or maybe bound the rotor somehow. Try this, jack the bike up off the floor and loosen the fork triple clamps and spin the wheel. Tighten them back up. If it will spin now you are good to go. If not, loosen the axle up and again spin the wheel. Tighten up and see what happens. If that don't work take your brake caliper off and see what is in there against the pads or what may have the slider bound (brakes have to be able to move around a bit). It about has to be one of these. Good luck and report back.
