In previous years I just went from the heavy bike (the only one I had) with 32s on it to studs. Slow but not a huge deal.

This year in one day I went from my new road bike to my new winter bike which weighs another 15 pounds, has an internally geared hub, platform pedals, upright stance and studded tires.

Feels like I'm going uphill ALL THE TIME.

Bonus is, in the spring it'll feel like I'm riding on a cloud.
