I'd guess that narrow tyres bite through the snow if it's not too thick.  
Mountain bikers are known to use the same principle for mud (eg cyclocross).

Frank, I am still amazed that getting around on bikes in that weather 
would be practical, snowmobiles yes but 2 wheelers wow. Oh picture 
looked fine to my eyes.

Another photo from last Friday's storm. Three o'clock on a Friday afternoon at 
a major downtown intersection and almost no cars. Usually Yonge and Queen would 
have a bit more traffic. Lots of people stayed home and lots of businesses 
closed early.

There were a few messengers still out, though:

With the bright background I set the exposure compensation for +1.7 EV and that 
gave good results, I think.

Hope you enjoy. Comments always welcome.

Cheers,
frank

Man, you guys gotta be nuts to use those thin tyres in such weather...

Photo really conveys the situation. Glad I'm not in his cleats.
