For those of you familiar with Chicago winters, you probably know that plowing is something that happens:

a) Right as the snow is starting

b) A couple days after the snow stops

What you see here is a very well maintained street in the middle of the ChiBerian Snowpocalypse. The road conditions are exponentially better than the sidewalks and this makes them the de facto path for getting around locally.

Off in the distance you can see a maniac riding around on a bicycle. To the left and right you have cars that probably won’t start for a few more days.
