I lived in Whitehorse, Yukon for 4 years.
I rode ~25 minutes to work every single day of the year. My best was -44C (-47.2F). It's like a whole different world at that temperature, and a lot of fun! (especially when the northern lights come out at 4pm.
Mostly in the winter it was around -30C or -35C.
- cartoonfoxes 6y agoI'm there now. This video reflects my experience - if you're close enough to your destination cycling is stupid easy when they plow the roads / trails, no fatbikes required. In anything short of -35C I'm probably warmer and more comfortable than people who drive. I walk more frequently than cycle, though, since the single biggest problem I've found with winter cycling is the hazard from fogged glasses in cold weather.
