We also have dedicated weather stations and cameras for 🚲🚶 traffic only as well, and it's sometimes nice to look at the cameras, although they only snap one photo every five minutes. It's been snowing for some hours now again, and the 24/7 maintenance works great. This photo was snapped right now at 01:30 am, and that path has already been plowed twice today.

@pekkatahkola I look at something like this and it feels like I’m getting a glimpse into life on another planet.
@grammasaurus May I ask which planet are you on? 😅 😊
@pekkatahkola ouch! I think it’s the one where up is down, black is white, and tomorrow all the clocks will strike 13 (sorry, that last bit is a literary reference)
@grammasaurus 42 years have passed now since 1984. So do we have the ultimate answer to life, the universe, and icy bike paths now? 🤔

@pekkatahkola We do! It’s called Oulu, Finland!

(here in the US we have a contingent that desperately wants to go back to the 14th C. I’m not a fan of such “progress”)

@grammasaurus We're not fans either. And our ice here is of the only good type. So, WTF - Welcome to Finland 🤗

@pekkatahkola WTF, yes. 😊

Not too bad here today though! I went with two cycling buddies on an 18 mile (29Km) ride—there were hills, there was wind, but there was sun too, and hope of spring in the air.
