I grew up in Alaska and no. Absolutely not. -40C is so cold that your face hurts when you walk. Your pants get insanely cold in the places where they are away from your skin and then chill you when they touch again. It's miserable.
It is quite pretty though.
- grecy 7y agoI rode my bike to work in -48C, and rode every day of the winter for 4 years. I would never, ever describe it as miserable. I loved it, and can't wait to get back North (Yukon)
- weeksie 7y agoAnybody who willingly rides their bike in -48C is (by definition) an outlier. I’m sure you’re quite tough, but yours is not a universal experience.
