  1. I've been wanting to build up a dedicated winter rig to have a bike with spikes and fenders mounted ready to go for a while, but now it turned up almost a bit too pretty ;).
    All City Space Horse, with almost exclusively parts I had lying around, I love how this build came together. It's all focused on simple maintenance and robustness:

    - 3 speeds, courtesy of a 44/ 32/ 24 triple in front with a 16 in the back, all possible due to a Paul Melvin chain tensioner
    - old XT tripple MTB crankset
    - XTR V-Brakes, the obvious star of the build (these were lying around in my parts box for about ten years now)
    - Schwalbe studded winter tires (30s, the cheap ones, let's see how much use they get)
    - Deore brake levers, they're quite nice (those I bought new)
    - MTB flats, so I can wear warm/ any shoes. I have some quite warm winter MTB shoes, might switch to clipless pedals at some point
    - Hope bottom bracket (bought used for this build, have them on almost all my bikes and they never let me down)

  6. Actively snowing and -12 in broad daylight. Meteorological Spring? My ass!

    Anyhow, #yegbike wise it's not bad as the snow is fluffy and you cut right through. Presumably it won't be cold and snowing long enough to build the sort of rutted ice cake that can make winter biking difficult.

  11. We had an exhilarating cold 45 minute bike ride this evening as a few snowflakes fell. I froze my feet (should have worn warmer shoes), face and backside. No big deal.
    It just felt so good to get out and pedal at a time when there's not many cars on the road. It really clears your head.
    And there's that great tingly feeling when you get into the warmth afterwards.
    5th ride of 2026.

  16. The bottom bracket is looking a bit rough, but that's for another day. I'm just wanting to make it ridable for now since it's going to snow again! Enough winter 😫 #wintercycling #cycling #biketooter

  22. February was a rough month for #cycling around these parts, so yesterday was the first day I was able to get out. Here are some nice highlights from the #SchuylkillRiverTrail near #valleyforge

  27. Dry and warm at the end of February. The road crew hasn’t had to plow once this year. March and April can sometimes bring a lot of snow but … not gonna hold my breath.

  32. Moin,
    vorletzter Tag #FrostPendeln und der #Frühling ist definitiv im Norden angekommen.
    Herr Weißstorch renoviert sein Nest und die Eisdielen haben wieder geöffnet 😀 !
    War schön mit Euch durch den Winter zu radeln, aber nun freue ich mich auf die #MitDemRadZumEisEssen Saison
    Heute gab es übrigens Heidelbeereis, war lecker.
