Jeneric#yegbike commute: lovely cool temperature of -4° with no wind.
Maybe an inch of snow overnight, more like 2cm. Covers the paths nicely, the slightest bit of slog on ordinary gravel tires. Some footprints to be avoided, but quite rideable.
Main roads mushy and slushy, medium roads with good snowpack. Some ice developing at intersections, nothing terrible as yet.
Traffic light, not many people about, the snow quietens everything down for a lovely serene ride.
I think this is the last day for the summer gravel bike, from here on it’s back to the studded winter beater as temperatures cool overnight.
