I’m a year ‘round guy but then I’m doing it in what may be the most temperate climate in the country. If I had to face freezing temperatures with snow and ice I might not be so dedicated. Weather wise, the SF Bay Area is about as easy as it gets.
I’ve said before that a rainy ride is not all that bad and frankly sometimes I find it enjoyable. There’s something almost primal about the close connection with nature I experience riding in the rain. I’ve only ever had similar feelings with staring into a campfire or catching a sail full of wind.
