We Alaskans, more than anyone else, love our summers. The thing is, we basically have three good months to get outdoors and do whatever we’ve been dreaming about for the past nine cold months. The problem with this mentality is that it creates seasonal sports, and seasonal industries. But, to the true bike commuter, the rubber doesn’t leave the road once the temps depart the lycra comfort zone. I’ve had no problems biking in temperatures down to about 20 below zero, as long as I'm geared up properly. Still, I hope this upcoming winter will go easy on us.
