The most extreme things in this video are the 30 year old heavy-ass mountain bikes, or riding on thin ice with a pannier rack attached. 5 stars for dumb.

Mister Yuck - 2021-02-28 When it's under a hundred eighty lbs of dumbass, 20 lbs of extra bike and gear isn't gonna make much difference to the ice.

Nominal - 2021-03-01 Most Nobel Laureate physicists would disagree that weight isn't a factor in falling through ice.
|
Mister Yuck - 2021-03-01 With ice that thin, the guy could have left the bike in the parking lot and walked to the bottom of the river.

As a bicyclist commuter who has to put up with other bicyclists all day, I fully support bicyclists disappearing into icy lakes.

By the way this Lucas Brunelle is the same guy from the "Cycling in Hurricane" video which has since disappeared: http://www.poetv.com/video.php?vid=162248
He's also famous for high-speed fixie riding in traffic and skitching off of cars, buses, and trucks.

The first rule of ice rescue is to get real close and also fall in.

5 stars for the friend falling in for solidarity. 5 more for the dude leaving him there to drag his bike to safety

Nominal - 2021-03-02 Never leave a carbon fiber behind! His bro understands.

jfcaron_ca - 2021-03-02 Yeah they purposely brought their steel bikes so that if they were *really* in danger they could leave 'em in the river. I doubt Brunelle is into carbon fibre racing bikes though, he strikes me as the "steel is real" type.
