Twitter: Do You Ride In Below Freezing Temps?
So I was sitting there starring at my Twitter account (MTBby198) when the question came into my head…
Here are some of the responses that I have received so far…
ITGuy @MTBby198 Unless I’m riding with friends I generally avoid riding in sub-freezing temps.
crujones @MTBby198 I do. HellTrack is fun when the Cliffhanger gets a little frost on it. =D
cjeight @MTBby198 Okla below freezing tends to b brutal.
cmadrigal @MTBby198 I do, although not too far below freezing…
chwilliams @MTBby198 if it’s below freezing I’m usually on a snowboard, that or fishing for steelhead
Thelonius71 @MTBby198 the temp doesn’t really sway me either way I’ll ride whenever I get a chance. If I had Millhouse’s free time I might be more picky
probikewrench @MTBby198 On the road, only to 25F. From past experience, ice in beards (and on roads), and slurring speech below that mark.
sdreiske @MTBby198 I have only ridden below freezing a few times before. I might end up doing some super cold night rides this winter.
chaddb @MTBby198 I’m currently gearing up for my first season of night and/or cold weather riding
athletetraining @mtbby198 if it drops to freezing I’ll try riding it. First winter riding so will be interesting
pingram3541 @MTBby198 I suppose I’d give it a go. Have hiked & climbed at below 0 temps but not biked.At what temp do you start q’ing the bike?
milliron @MTBby198 Mountain bike below freezing, frequently. Road, no not likely.

Nice to see an active community once the white stuff starts to fall! I know up in Calgary the temperature doesn’t dip below -20°C too often, so winter riding is totally do-able (and great fun).
The mountains are pretty much out (since they get way too much snow), but zipping around local trails are still good fun, and commuting to work is a little more interesting

Yes I ride in subfreezing temperatures. I just make sure I’m in the woods so there is minimal wind.
