This year is not as bad as it was last year, and it is yet to snow in most parts where I am. Last year, we had a snow storm and my car needed a jump start at around Christmas. Looking at the weather forecast, it is not going to snow at least until New Year. Today, it was a sunny day, and I rode my bike with a light winter jacket. From the Midwest US here, by the way.
I could only imagine the folks in Texas and California having a great time bike-riding now.
