Bikes and a lake on a cold day

We had a local ice race and I decided to take pictures instead of racing and here are a few that I got.

I've never seen this before. Do they use spiked tires?

That looks like a bit of fun. Never riden in that sort of cold. We tend to have to deal with heat extremes rather than the cold.

You should see them downhill race in the snow/ice.

I have seen a couple of photos of that here and there. Would be cool to watch.

Yeah you defiantly need studded tires for this kinda riding....Trust me.

Gotta love Canada for providing the -1000000 degrees to freeze a lake so we can go ride on it lol.

Yeh we couldn't freeze a lake in Australia even if we threw all our mother in laws into it! :footinmou
