Cycl you got ice fishing all wrong. It's not about the fish... it's about the beer and an excuse for hanging out with the guys.

And yes, every year there are shacks up all over around where I live and northward. I've gotten used to that (they didn't do this in Illinois where I grew up, but of course there were no lakes there either, so they probably would have if it'd been an option), and even the snowmobiles (hey I've even done it a few times). What always freaks me out tho, is the pickups that are out there in say LATE MARCH? when the temps are starting to go back up.

But I have been thinking about ice biking/ice bike racing. That might be kind of fun!
