Bike Pic Jan. 9, cold Temp. biking can be fun if prepared

Prepared for the the upcoming cold snap, in this photo, a cyclist standing next to his bike models his gear to stay warm as temperatures drop.

We have all thought, when looking out the window, the weather is too rotten to ride my bike.

Regular cyclists know that there’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing. If you dress in layers and fabrics that block wind and repel rain or snow and breathe, you’ll be fine. There are even special gloves and booties to keep your fingers and toes toasty. Visit your favorite bike shop and they can help you select the proper equipment for year-round riding. And, even if you decide to bike only during warm weather, that’s still months of not using your car, which will save you big bucks and make you feel great!
