Riding a Chinese scoot all winter long. Being familiar with the area I don't believe I would try it.

Loved this part:

Commuting at 80 miles-per-gallon, and hauling the groceries home are the stuff of middle-class dreams. Yet those poor slobs still drive the mini-van or SUV back and forth to work because, twice-a-week, they have to transport the kids to some sporting event. The rest of the time they have two-tons of metal hauling their singular person around. How wasteful is that?

I'm just impressed the Chinabike even started in that weather!

This got me looking at studs for knobbies except, thank God, we get so little snow here so rarely it wouldn't be worth it.

I agree with you; I think he's crazy. :roll: Nevertheless, thanks for posting the link, Allen.
