Thousands of drivers pass beneath these high voltage power lines and never feel a thing. That's not the same experience that bicycle riders will experience.

These particular power lines shown above are flowing directly from a nuclear power plant in the southwest corner of the state, the Cook Nuclear Plant between Bridgeman and Stevensville.

The highway that flows directly to the east is I-94 and those drivers see the mass of power lines coming directly from the generating source and would feel nothing.

However, between the interstate and the nuclear plant is Thorton Road. Should you walk or bike down this road and directly underneath the power lines, you will certainly feel the static electricity in the air. And if you're not expecting it, it can be unnerving.

This feeling of static electricity in the air near high voltage lines is a known phenomenon and in some places, bicyclists are cautioned before they approach the area. In the Minneapolis area, there's a curious warning sign that appears on a bike trail that crosses below a high voltage line.

That sign may give you pause. Or it may make you want to complete the crossing to get the sensation in the air. As one person joked on Facebook, "That tingling sensation is not from a York peppermint patty."
