winter tires for your bike

I saw this kid riding his bike. It had regular tires in the spot that regular tires would be placed on the average bicycle.

On the handle bars were two MUCH larger tires. Probably ones for a truck or something.

Now, I know it's almost time to put the winter tires on my car. But will these tires work on a bicycle? I mean, could they possibly fit?

If you CAN actually get winter tires for your bike that ARE the size of truck tires, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!

Imagine all the places you could bicycle! Like, to the top of Mount Rushmore!

Maybe even through the Peppermint Forest to the top of the Gumdrop Mountains!

And trust me, THAT is hard! Unless you're lucky enough to get through the Rainbow Trail. Which I never get. I think Queen Frostine uses magic to curse me. She never liked me after that mishap with Gloppy.

I don't know if I would actually like to drive a bicycle in the winter. That seems cold. Unless I could get a heater on it. Maybe heated handle bars? And the seat?

And a helmet! With heat!

I'm liking this! I could totally rule the bike path in the winter!

I would plow right by Queen Frostine with Gramma Nut in my sidecar! Since my bicycle would have a sidecar. Also heated.

That's how I roll. Heated and largely-tired.

I'm off to purchase a bicycle.

Enjoy Everything.

tires shouldn't do this

I don't know much about cars, but I'm PRETTY sure tires are not supposed to get all woobly when you are driving. And if they do, should you keep driving? Even if they unwooble?

I was driving the other day. On the highway. Or freeway. Or parkway. Or motorway. Or autobahn. I actually don't know if there is a difference with any of those words. Pick your favorite.

I was driving. It was a road. I was not woobling. Everybody was going pretty fast. One car on this road started to slow down because their front wheels were NOT going straight. They were totally wobbling! Like crazy!

This car slows down a little. Then the wheels magically straighten out! So they speed off again!

If my tires EVER got possessed like that, I would stop in the middle of the road and trade my car with somebody who did NOT have wobble-wheels!

I've never seen anything like it.

I've also never seen anything like a giant cake falling from the sky and landing in my arms.

(I'm hoping that "things I've never seen before" start becoming "things I have seen and will possibly eat")

...

No cake yet. I'll wait. I mean, I saw the wibbly, wobbly, woobly wheels. I SHOULD be seeing that cake soon.

It would be cool if car tires were also cake. And instead of air, you filled it with cotton candy. A cotton candy filled cake-tire sounds delicioustastic.

I'm off to taste my tires.

Enjoy Everything.
