GetDowntown Helps Cyclists Brave the Winter Commute

GetDowntown is helping cyclists keep their commute up in the chilly winter months. The Ann Arbor-based organization has put together a handy Guide to Winter Commuting In Ann Arbor.

A few tid-bits:

  • Windproof gear: Keeps you a lot warmer than just fleece
  • Tires with spikes in them.
  • Give yourself more time. When it gets really cold/snowy, it can slow you down.

Many more tips for cycling in winter months await! Check out the guide for more info on basic gear and practical hints and tips for winter commuting.
