Just had a horrible experience - need guidance (lemmy.ca)

I’m eating dinner and all of a sudden it really hits me that the riding season is genuinely over for me in the next few weeks.

It’s 0-2 C every morning now and the afternoon it gets up to 9-10. I just got this bike in June. The tires are probably not very good below 6.

How do y’all cope with having to put the bike up for winter? Do you pick up a winter hobby?

Black ice and unplowed snowy roads area big problem where I’m at otherwise I’d just get warm gear. Envious of the desert! Dry heat is much more bearable.
