Tribute to Studs

Of all the studded objects available in this world, there is one that sets itself apart from the rest. So it is with great love and admiration that I dedicate this post to you, studded bicycle tire. Not content to be just another knobby tire - oh, no. On snowy side streets, you bravely keep me upright and straight. On clear main roads, you make me stronger with your beautiful steel nuggets of rolling resistance. So what if you weigh 2 pounds apiece? So what if you make me look like a slow, out-of-shape moron riding a bike in a snowmobile suit? You don't care - you just keep rolling down the road, squashing and biting every piece of ice and slush that comes your way. So thank you, studded bicycle tire - when all of your sleeker tire friends say "no", you say "hell yes."
