It also transformed my feelings about winter, which is long, gray and mostly charmless here excepting the occasional blizzard, but commuting by bike warms me and gets me fresh air and exercise. It makes it much more tolerable. I actually enjoy my commute and look forward to it.

So many people I work with insist biking is unappealing or borderline impossible while complaining almost daily about their commute. Obviously for some people and some commutes it really is impossible, but I’m not talking about those situations.

That thing that transformed winter for me was skiing and winter hiking. Now that we’re getting into shoulder season I can’t wait to hit the trails/slopes!

It used to also be so for me, but every year I realise this is becoming a dying sport reserved for the extra wealthy.
