A man was captured riding an electric bike across the semi-frozen Charles River in Boston, Massachusetts, on Tuesday, January 6.

Footage captured by Chris Devor shows a man ride the electric bike onto the partially frozen river, accessing it from a boat ramp near Longfellow Bridge and using his feet to keep him steady on the ice.

Video shows the man cycle around the icy Charles River for just under five minutes. He eventually cycles back onto dry land where he is met by four police vehicles.

Speaking to Storyful, Devor said the man, “drove it fairly close to watery sections where he could’ve easily fell through. When he came back to shore, four cop cars rolled in and confronted him.”

In 2021, Boston cyclist and vlogger Lucas Brunelle, fell through ice on the frozen Charles River after cycling 800 feet across the river.

A Bears-Packers playoff game is certainly memorable. Saturday will be only the third time in history the oldest rivals in the NFL have faced each other in the post-season. The Packers won the last time in 2011 and the Bears won the first, which was way back in 1941. It was a week after Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, throwing the United States into World War II in December 1941. The Bears played their games at Wrigley Field in those days. That season, the Bears and Packers finished the regular season in a tie and played the first divisional playoff game in NFL history. It featured two founding fathers of the league, the Bears' George Halas and the Packers' Curly Lambeau.
