It’s March, 2023, and while we know that California’s been having a rough winter this year, that’s usually a place where riders get a lot more outdoor seat time than North American riders in traditionally colder climes. That makes it totally understandable why, if you’re a pro motocross guy like Aaron Colton, you might want to leave your native Minnesota for the sunny warmth of Cali.
Since the guy originally comes from Shakopee, Minnesota (which is part of the greater Minneapolis-St. Paul Twin Cities area), resorting to the Minneapolis Skyway to get around in the dead of winter was just a way of life. In 2023, it’s considered the world’s most extensive indoor skyway system, letting people walk about 9.5 miles and over 80 city blocks inside the warmth of a series of human-sized hamster tunnels.
