Could probably rock a balaclava in those temperatures. I bought one in anticipation of winter riding, but the coldest I've ridden this year is -11 C and it wasn't quite necessary yet at that point, but I was debating trying it out.

Climate change is basically killing most of the cold days we have where I live so this is a problem I'm long-term apparently not going to have to deal with. Instead I will have to deal with the way worse type of weather - wet weather.

Take your bike on the train. That's what I did last time I had somewhere to be that was >100 km away, and it was a fantastic trip

Free cardio, what's not to love? E-bikes are an option for those that don't love it

If the weather is bad enough, I will take transit instead, but cycling down to -10 C is doable without any problems.

I will be far less inclined to bike if it's raining, that I do hate with a passion. Of course, I could just work from home in that scenario as well, if I don't feel like taking transit

I'm buying for two, but I'm also only loading one basket on my pannier rack. I could easily add another for double the capacity, along with maybe also a backpack. There's also the possibility of using a trailer.

To add insult to injury on the topic of how misinformed Americans are:

More likely to be killed.

Cycle commuting is associated with a 47% decrease in all-cause mortality (source)

What's more likely to kill you is sitting at the wheel all day in a car.

I routinely buy a week's worth of groceries on my bike. Every week.

Checkmate liberals-tier comment. Why did you even post this?

[–] GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 15 points 8 months ago (9 children)

Also can't get groceries

Americans unironically believe this. Pathetic

From what I gather from the Perplexity CEO, he is just that type of Musk-tier cringelord, so yes, probably

My god, could he have chosen a name more cringe than this? Fuck.

Honestly, just never use link shorteners. QR codes have basically completely killed their use-case, and various sharing tools take care of what little QR codes do not.
