Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Ice biking and snow biking have an increased following in the U.P. in recent years. Local photographer Aaron Peterson is one rider, and captured some amazing video and photos of a friend biking over perfectly clear ice on the Great Lakes.
 
Excerpt: Up here in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula you have to find ways to have fun in winter or you’ll go nuts. There’s a lot of chatter back and forth about fat bikes (most locals in the UP still call them snow bikes because that’s when we primarily ride them, but some ride them year round) on the forums, etc., debating if they are a fad or if they look stupid, etc. But to most of us it’s all about the fun. They’re just another bike in the quiver. Road. Mountain. Cross. Fat. Repeat. It’s a progression of the sport, at least regionally.
