The skies are clearing and Montrealers have come out of their first major snowfall of the season in pretty good shape.

Unicycles, bikes, buses braved the storm as almost 20 cm fell

Montrealershave come out of theirfirst major snowfall of the season in pretty good shape.

By the evening, whenmost of the snow had already fallen, we figured you would have some photos to share.

We posted one our favourites to Facebook the image of two unicyclists braving a hill.

Within two hours, nearly 500 people reacted to the picture, and the unicyclists themselves saw it and replied.

Unicycles were too adventurous for someMontrealers, whoopted for commuting by bike instead.

It wasn't all easy-going though buses were unable to make it up some hills and commuters all over the city were slowed down by the snow.
