Bob lives in Madison, WI, where it’s damned cold. And every morning (and every evening) he hops on his bicycle and peddles pedals five miles to work. Whatever the weather, no matter how cold. Or so he says and I want to believe him. I don’t know how you ride a bike in ass-deep snow but Bob says you can (special tires?).

He snapped this photo this morning. It was a few degrees below zero. Note his rosy cheeks.

When it’s that cold, what happens when you sling a bucket of warm water into the air? It freezes before it hits the ground.

Update: Willie Lohman “peddles” like his life depends on it. Thanks, E. for the reminder.
