I went to high school in Wisconsin and walking was always an option. We did close schools when the temperature dropped below -40, though.

I live in Wisconsin and ride my bike to work throughout the year. Amusingly, it's often up-wind both ways, because the wind changes direction during the day. My kids walk or bike to school, or take the city bus.

No, it was pretty flat. I'm amused that this sounds improbable, though. Cold isn't that big of an obstacle. I hated Wisconsin winters, but it's just a matter of dressing properly.
