On one snowy day while out riding, I stopped for gas and was asked by someone if they could take a picture of me, next to my bike. It was OK if I kept my helmet on, she said. Needed to show it to her husband.

It turns out he had left his car running outside of a gas station, and it had been stolen. So she wanted to show him a picture of someone riding in the snow to show that people could survive the cold for longer than it took to start the car.

I bet you this backfired and her man bought a motorcycle lol.

I don't know... someone who is so scared of the cold that they have to leave the car running to go into quiktrip isn't going to ride in the snow.
