Yes, it's definitely the same segment that originally aired two winters ago.   I'm a big Chicago Tonight fan and DVR it every night, so I don't miss a segment.  Unfortunately, due I think to budget cuts, they have been rerunning old segments as filler.  They run this segment every time we get a good snowfall.  It was run at least twice over the past two winters.

Who?? What?? That's crazy!

Ethan Spotts, Active Trans

PS: CBF morphed into Active Trans just over three years ago (Nov. 2008)...glad it seems like longer to some (thanks, Kevin)

PPS: I would consider donating $50 bucks of my personal money to anyone that signs Scott Rowan up as an Active Trans member ($35). Think about it, Chainlinkers.

If not older than that. Randy Neufeld hasn't been with Chicago Bike Federation and in fact CBF hasn't existed since 2004.

I watched it and I think this is now the 3rd winter that they are replaying that segment.

Ethan! Is that really you? I thought you were still out on maternity leave. Congratulations?

Sorry. I was working off Randy's resume from his Linked In profile. I incorrectly assumed that his departure from the position of Executive Director coincided with the absorption of CBF into ATA.

Thanks Kevin, I'm back as of yesterday (so fortunate for being able to take 9 weeks paid) and I'm glad to be back. Biked in today, felt so good! And the little baby boy is healthy with powerful legs (all the nurses commented).

Best,

Ethan

Yep, this one has been shown a few times before, as Phil Ponce mentions in the intro.
