Warren usually does the bike posts, but he is in Australia and somehow we don't think winter biking is a challenge there. Tombola at ::Hugg points us to an article with Ten ways of making cycling bearable in November (not that November in London or even Toronto is tough) but that will work all winter. The video of a Toronto winter rider also has a good tip: get a junker bike, the road salt will corrode it in a season or two. We would add our own tip: call your City Councillor and demand that they keep the bike lanes plowed.::Times Online
