And you walked through the snow, uphill, both ways to school as a kid???

keep in mind I live in Wis, where annual snowfall is measured in feet I think. we had a guy from Germany down the road. he never in his life owned a car. only thing he ever drove was an old school BMW motorcycle. no heated anything on it. when cars were getting stuck on the highway and what not you'd see him come tooling up to the grocery store to stock up for the next storm. he rode in heavy snowstorms, ice, you name it.
i tried it one year here, I have no idea how he did it for his whole life. funny almost everyone around here who rode at the time knew of him. he passed away a few years back but people still talk about him.
