Winter cycling is a recipe for hypothermia, frostbite, and pneumonia.

*December 12th, remember!!

I thought I was supposed to remember the 5th of November. Three score barrels o' powder below.

No no, the TMNs go to Octet, sorry.

TMN?

Why risk serious injuries or worse in really bad winter weather, I don't understand that reasoning. Cars make life easier, safer and more comfortable in those circumstances. Cycling is to be enjoyed, not battling against the elements.

No car, when it snows I have a sled... we then go to the local shops or anywhere else with me pulling the two small peoples on it for the couple of days of inconvenience the snow causes here, it does the job and small people think it is marvelous! It depends on why you are cycling as to whether battling the elements is part and parcel of it or not!

It's a forum in-joke Octet - when someone posts something and no one responds, then a while later someone else posts the same thing and gets lots of attention the first poster can claim TMNs. I once got 3 TMNs in the same day. And is probably about to again.

I sometimes have snow around for a few months. Max, my largest dog, has already informed me he will not be pulling any sled with groceries on it this year. Ice fishing gear yes, groceries, no.

That's me convinced then. In fact why bother with a bike at all. I think I'll sell my bikes and get myself a sensible convertible sports car. That way I can enjoy my Sunday morning rides without having to battle against any of the elements, hot or cold.

I think you misunderstood my comments completely or you are just being sarcastic.

If I sold all my bikes, I might be able to buy a tire for a convertible sports car.

Why would you want to go out in the cold and snow Eh?




Always and angle to have fun on a bike..
