These Toronto cyclists don't let a little thing like the changing of seasons stop them from racing. When the ice rinks open up, they take screws to their tires for added traction on the ice, and race on what is basically the coolest velodrome we have ever seen. It takes a certain type of person to engage in such a wildly dangerous activity, and you can meet a few of them in this nearly twenty-five minute documentary about the  “closed-circuit velodrome races” taking place every year in Toronto.
