Question for cyclists / bike commuters: How worried are you about frost & ice? I love cycling to work, and have fairly fat tires on my mid-tail cargo bike (not electric… just slow). But I’ve fallen and broken a bone once on black ice (plus once on wet leaves when I stupidly took a corner way too fast).

Maybe I’m just clumsy, because I see plenty of cyclists out there. Vancouver frost might be particularly wet and slippery? Or am I being too cautious?

Any tips or ideas?

@gwerker On nice straight roads you should be safe at steady speeds, with no braking or turning on the icy bits. (When I was younger it was quite fun to arrive covered in frost.) But wet, muddy, twisty lanes have made me suffer.
