Well it is cool that I can get studded bike tires here.
never tried them but I know they will help.
Im willing to bring a few pairs over to the states.....

14 years ago I rode my bike all winter to work, I cant count how many times I fell and how many holes I fixed.
they throw down crushed granite on the ice as salt wont work under a certain temp, sometimes the granite is like razors in the tire.
