 Here in Minneapolis, we're having a proper winter -- the first for some time.  We've 3-4" of snow and more is supposed to come today.  As a Northern people you need to make friends with winter and enjoy it or you'll go insane, and not in a good way.  People who ski (downhill and XC), snowmobile and snowshoe look at me as if I'm insane when I ride my bike.
What?  There's no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing...
Don't be afraid to shake Ol' Man Winter's hand -- and then twist it behind his back, drop him, put a knee between his shoulder blades and ride his hoary carcass down the hill.  It's fun.
Oh, and I'm with warren t; I love the moniker "hard core."
