This morning I awoke to even more snow. I wondered if I would still see cyclists out there. After all, the weather was so bad I had to delay my return to Ottawa by a day. Chances seemed slim.
After breakfast, I ventured outside my hotel to find this beautiful (Wintery) example of bicycle craftsmanship.
Would I be disappointed? Would I see a cyclist in this icy, slippery mess?
The cyclists are fine. It’s those poor exposed chains I feel sorry for. If there is salt on the road they’ll rust very quickly without a chainguard.
David, you are indeed correct. You will see many “beater” bikes over here. And the salt plays a big part!
I’m always amazed and awed by people who ride in the snow.
Yup! Canadians can be a bit “crazy”
