Oh The Humanity!
Drat. the weather forecast for this Saturday's Pie Ride is for Rain/snow and very windy! Whats an younger over 50 to do? Help! Can I ride my trainer and eat my wife's home-made strawberry pie in my living room and still take credit for the pie ride? Do I have to go out into the first winter weather of the season?

In answer to your question- YES. Unless the snow is above the height of the pedals and will make your feet cold.
Edit---- Was just about to get the bike out of the shed for a cooler evening ride and Big flashes of lighting and plenty of thunder- I just wish it was snow then I could get some decent photos up on the hills

Montanans are supposed to be able to handle this. Piece of cake and all that. www.icebike.com might be a useful site.

That reminds me, I still have to find a diner that sells pie. Everything here is either fast food or chicken and bisquets.
