A winter bike ride in Maple
On Jan 29th, I went for a bike ride around Maple. Temperature was -5C. It turned out to be a very comfortable and enjoyable ride. Many think that winter cycling is quite daunting, but the main things you need are warm clothes and plowed snow! It you have these then you are good to go except in the most extreme conditions. Ride on, friends.
Here’s a map of my route.
