I was having coffee at a friend’s house earlier today, and when it was time to ride home I felt very grateful that I still have winter tyres on my bike.

What are you grateful for today?

    Looks gritty cold! Winter and spring are having a game of tag. ;)
    Grateful today for a warm fire to ward off the chill and morning birdsong on this gray, rainy day.

      It was cold! The chill factor was around 42F.

      Sounds wonderful! I am also enjoying the rest of the day inside. There’s actually a weather warning to stay inside if possible.

    Do winter tires/tyers really work on a bike? I’ve never tried it. Today I am grateful that He is Risen! Happy Easter, Maria.

        I never had that as a kid on his bike in Michigan. We rode our bikes on the lake when it was thick enough!

          I never had that as a kid either, but we had a special kind of s snow-sled that you use almost like a kick-bike, but it is for the ice.

            I think I’ve seen photos of that sled design.

    You are awesome! Those of us who live in the north have to be plucky.

      It was only about -2C but with the wind chill it felt much colder. I don’t know if you heard about the big storm hitting the South-West of Sweden? We were not in that area, but right above it.
