My spouse and I moved to our weekend house in March when we learned that COVID life would be different and work would be remote. It was a big adjustment, and now that winter is coming, it will be yet another. Doing shopping by bike is harder here, as the roads are quite hilly. I've only ridden here at night a few times and am not sure I'll feel safe. Given all these challenges, it might be hard to stay on the bike in the cold. I rode all through the winter last year, as I was living in NYC and we had no snow or ice that winter. Since I have no work commute now, my rides have been for pleasure and exercise which was also an adjustment. I have to schedule my rides. I should probably schedule them for early mornings now, but it's not very inviting to go out in the coldest hour of the day.
