That's kind of funny. Depending on what you would consider an unfriendly climate, that would eliminate about 1/2 of the days of the year in Minneapolis (between rain, snow, ice, cold, and heat). Minneapolis ranks #2 behind Portland in the U.S. for the number of bike commuters. Good thing some of us are willing to ignore him.
