With the crazy winter most have experienced, I thought you may enjoy the linked video.
Just think if Jerry outfitted the Busse crew with these............

Garth wouldn't have to walk (wobble) home in snow after a late online "Death Chat".

Everyone could still get to work during snow emergencies.

Great exercise.

All of us in Atlanta could lash these to our cars so we didn't get stranded on the highways.

I've done that before and I'm an avid mountain biker. All I really remember from the experience is repeatedly saying, "This sucks. I'm dying. I'm falling. This sucks. I'm dying. I'm falling.", then going home and collapsing from the kind of exhaustion I typically experience only after biking 60 miles off-road in the summertime ;) . VERY good workout.
 
My buddy has one of those snow bikes. They are spendy; I think starting about $2k!!! Tons of fun though. I've only done a little snow riding, but they work well on muskeg too.

The type of exhaustion I would experience after a 60 mile bike ride would be referred to as DEATH.

I do not want to think about all the things that would have to go wrong before I was peddling a bike for 60 miles.
