A few years ago, I saw a documentary about one or many people going to the north pole. I don't remember much about it except for the part when they met with this fellow, on his way to the north pole also, riding a bike!

Looks like he rode it through the slushy machine at http://www.7-eleven.com/images/tmpl_r03_c04.gif
I guess that's unusual enough to merit a picture in North Carolina, not here.
sheesh, would you take a nice bike with rolf wheels into that weather? I just can't imagine that kind of cold weather anymore :D
That's nothing, here it is -30 everyday for the last month, last night, and tonight the Windchill is expected to be -50 :( I hope it warms up soon so I can ride.

Soooo, how warm will it have to be? :confused: :eek:
Greywolf, I am crazy, just look at my username. :) Roadbuzz, it has to be at least 0 or warmer, that might happen here in June :( I hate winter, it cuts into my riding time.

As a matter of interest, no I don't actually.
:p
Ya know mine was embarassing but it wasn't cold by any means (drafty yes, cold no)
I've been riding again since January.
This has got to be one of the worst winters I've seen in T.O. in a long time. When I rode to work on Monday night during the middle of a snow storm I bailed once when my front tire washed out and sent me sliding to the curb. I was kinda of comical actually. My bike ended up in the middle of the road while I slid 3-4 ft through some snow and slush. I thought for sure if anything my bike was going to get toasted, however we both emerged unscathed. My bike after a commute these last few weeks is usually covered in ice and slush by the time I get to where I'm going.
I'm tired of this crap though, and after today, the forecast is showing some warmer weather. It is supposed to get up to 1 degree celcuis this weekend. Should be like riding in Hawaii. :D

Just reminds me that I have to do two centuries in March to make up for the Feb one that had to be canned due to illness. One of them is coming up this weekend. I just need to decide on which century to do. Of course, I won't have any issues with the cold around here. But the combination of heat and relative lack of water (still in drought, despite recent rain) might present a problem.
