I can't imagine doing my 20KM commute over bike in -20°C (very common here in Edmonton,Alberta). It's sub-zero temperatures for easily 5 months of the year, with large amounts of snow. Even to the nearest train station would be quite an adventure in -20 with snow drifts.
- downerending 6y agoI did such a commute in Los Angeles for a number of years. Weather was fine. Sweaty, but doable. But it just plain soaks up your time, which is your life. Some people would be cool with that, but it certainly shouldn't be forced on people. And really, it was only possible for me because I was young, single, childless, and had close to no life. To say that everyone should do this is the height of narcissism.
