Winter bikers on WTTW's Chicago Tonight?

Someone sent me an email because WTTW's Chicago Tonight is supposed to have winter bikers on it tonight.

"Winter Biking
These days, we're seeing lots of people commuting on their bikes in the winter. We meet a few of them."

Who will it be?

Hmm. I've seen Chi Tonight run a story on winter cycling more than once. I wonder if they are planning on running that canned piece again. It's a nice piece, but at this point 2 years (?) on, not exactly "news." I'll tune in. If the old guy at the end admits to lying about how many kids he has, it's not a fresh piece. :)

I'd bet it's likely, with Prez. Day holiday cutting into the staffing.

It's probably Jay Shefsky's piece from two winters ago:

I hope it's a fresh piece. I know they re-ran the old piece last year.

There have been a number of print and video perspectives on winter cycling in the last year. Look for the next one in the Feb. 27th issue of the Chicago Tribune, in which columnist Barbara Brotman interviewed several Snow Riders.
