In the meantime cities in Finland experience multiple inches of snow a day and still manage to have high cycling numbers during Winter. The number one predictor of cycling participation is decent infrastructure that is maintained. Hills, winter, rain are all a distant third place to having decent infrastructure and then maintaining that infrastructure. Cycle paths regularly plowed? High cycling activity. No cycling infrastructure and a habit of plowing snow onto the sidewalk? No cycling activity. Make it safe to ride, people will ride.
