We build up our toughness and dedication gradually. If my coldest riding temperature were 50ºF, I couldn't jump into 25ºF weather. Some years I'm tougher than others. This year, I've ridden in low temperatures, but I have not been eager to ride on slippery roads. I've ridden on slightly slushy streets this year, but only using the Citi Bike fleet. The bikes weigh 50 pounds and have fenders and chainguards. They handle well on slippery surfaces.
