@MarkBrigham @bikenite @ascentale my record is -32C (-26F). My partner's record is -37C (-35F). But we've moved since then to a much warmer city that never even gets to -20C (-4F). I don't miss -30C. #BikeNite

@the5thColumnist @yantor3d @ascentale @MarkBrigham @bikenite #BikeNite A3 followup: I currently have Schwalbe Marathon Winter Plus on my Brompton Electric G-Line and rode some very bumpy frozen hiking paths with it:

The rear wheel still occasionally slipped, but it was no comparison to riding on ice without studded tires.

80 percent of the world’s population is willing to bike as cold as freezing temperature (or melting temp, depending on your perspective); 32 percent claim to be Zero Heroes on the Fahrenheit scale.

@MarkBrigham @bikenite @ascentale methinks you might just be extrapolating from incomplete data here ... not entirely sure that the masodonians are representative of the entire world's population

OTOH, how high do you go?

@MarkBrigham @bikenite @ascentale No sampling bias at all

@xtaran @the5thColumnist @yantor3d @ascentale @MarkBrigham @bikenite I've tried many brands/models of studded tires and these are my favorite so far. Good choice!

@josh @xtaran @the5thColumnist @yantor3d @ascentale @MarkBrigham @bikenite

I like the name of the Nokian studded tires - Hakkapelitta

@MarkBrigham has a poll:

Q3. How low do you go? (Coldest temperature in which you willingly cycle).

I've been through a couple of sets of W240s. For a while we had Hakkas on our car and my winter bike.

@josh: How can that posting be from 2015 if your Pixelfed account is from 2019? Or can you set the date in Pixelfed?

@ascentale @MarkBrigham @bikenite If I could just keep my damn toes warm, I feel like there is no lower limit to temp. Hands are good, head is good, face is good, core gets too hot actually, but I cannot keep my toes warm. #BikeNite

@rowmyboat @ascentale @MarkBrigham @bikenite

Battery warming socks are wonderful. I had the same issue. It would take 4 more hours for my feet to get warm after ther the rest if me.
