I rode more in January (274kms) than I did in December or November.
But like, no one rides a bike in winter. 🤷🏼

Time to up the bench count at popular entrances on the Canal. Dow's Lake was hopping!
Also, re:bike parking.
Cuz #BikeToSkate is alive and well in Ottawa. I had to kick a bunch of snow away from these (bad) racks to lock up.

After 4 days of some of the most challenging winter riding in the 8 years I've been doing it, I can say unequivocally, I have no interest in gravel or mountain biking.
Smooth pavement and light tail winds forever.

My step to improve my bus service was to start riding a bike thru winter.
Much improved the reliability of my commute, plus I get exercise and save money.

My winter bike got new, wider fenders installed today, along with a new chain and fresh brakes.
Hopefully this will solve the massive slush build up, slushy facials, and will or won't I stop issues I've been having. 🙃
