Is your car stuck in the snow? Have you considered riding your bike to get around town until your car is no longer snowbound?
Unfortunately, a lot of people are unsure about biking in the wintertime, for understandable reasons. That’s why GObike Buffalo is offering a winter riding training session workshop that will teach people the ins and out of biking in the snow.
What sort of tires should I be using for traction? What’s the best bike to use to get down a snowy street?
The free clinic will answer those questions, and more, including safety, equipment, and learning/practicing new skills.
The more people that ride their bikes during the wintertime, the more bike-friendly features, services, infrastructure, etc. will be available to riders.
“The more we ride in all four seasons, the more we can push for year-round maintenance of bike lanes and paths by our area municipalities. Other northern cities are doing it, we can too!” – GObike Buffalo
