Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

You are clearly the cold weather expert! It is going to go down to -6 Celsius next Wednesday but that is rare and the first time in years. I will walk to work and jog in the snow for exercise. I got some "innov8" shoes with "talons" on the sole for this purpose, on the left in this photo below.

I have only used chemical warmers in my cycling shoes once.

I do recommend neoprene covers though. I found that if I just covered the toes of my shoes it made a big difference

Now I only use bottle covers.

I charged my Di2 battery. Does that count?
