Do you like riding in the winter? Do you like skiing? Well good news, you can combine your two favourite sports. Riding outside can be daunting sometimes, and if you’re not prepared, a little bit sketchy. Having the right bike, whether it’s a fat bike or using studded tires, can help with grip. But still, you need to be a little cautious when you come across ice or snow. Riding in powder isn’t so bad, as long as there aren’t ruts underneath. Riding in the white stuff is a great way to mix up your training, work on your bike handling skills–plus it’s fun!
