What they quoted Robbin Williams saying about riding a bike is the closest thing to being able to fly; it's true. A bike allows you to have a feeling of being 1 the earth and everything in it. The hum of tires gives you feeling of moving across this world (earth)by my on means/power. I couldn't ride a bike for 23 years due to head injury and serious balance issues. Now at 55; I can again find the machine that I so loved as a child and enjoyed for a big part of my life that I very much missed.
Was using my 10 speed street bike on the trails of Yellowstone and when I got back here I became the nut who rode his bike all winter up in St Cloud. Seems that the rest of the pack has caught up pretty well now.
Meanwhile in the east coast, they hibernate cuz it's only 20. And in the south, cuz it's 40. I like that Minnesotans are outdoorsy not matter the clime. Though idk about bike riding. I'd rather go ice skating.
It sure is! I believe the discussion of fat biking being uniquely Minnesotan was rooted around fat biking's mainstream origins. After a lot of DIY experimentation in the Yukon, fat bikes made their mass-production debut with the Surly Pugsley based out of Minnesota.
I see this place as a hell hole now. People call police for help and nek minute your the one being shot at. Screw the corruption that happens up there. Nice video but to bad that place has left us all a bad memory now.
I just found the simple yet profound joy of winter riding last year here in Minnesota-and this short films gets it just about right. Well done.
That is great to hear! Thanks!

I will experience my 1st winter here in the Minneapolis area with my ebike. This is gonna be great!
Great video, captured the essence. Saw myself at the 1:22 mark. Are you a rider?
I am! All kinds, all conditions.
People seem and look more connected in Minneapolis anywhere in the US

Ace!
Fat biking is done all over the world in cold climates.

I love it up there, it's a beautiful city but I as well have witnessed some negative situations. Hence why I am no longer there.
