Luckily, we don't get any snow. Okay, maybe a couple of inches as a one-time event each year. However, our city manager saw fit to end all bike path maintenance this year, winter and summer. Many of the bike paths end up with from several inches to several feet of water when we get a bit of rain. There are a few semi-permanent ponds on some of the paths. Almost all of the flooding problems are the result of damage to the paths caused by city employees driving trucks on them, mostly as a short-cut.
Still, it looks a lot easier to roll through a bit of liquid water than the frozen stuff, but I wouldn't know. I am such a weather wimp that I have always lived in areas with temperatures (mostly) on the high side of zero Celsius.
