I have a love of riding in the winter on snow-packed roads. It's just so peaceful riding my single-speed (SS) and the SS is the best option anytime in the winter...no shifting gears to mess up, gunk up, or ice up.
Lately I've been spending some quality time caring for my Grampa (a real cool 96-yr old guy) living up in Grangeville, ID. Grangeville has some super nice places ride that I have been taking advantage of as much as possible. Many of the locals have been looking at me with rather large, disbelieving eyes...they're getting use to me I think and they're all quite friendly.
Below is a ride I did on a day last week when the temp was a slightly cool 8-degrees outside. There was no wind and the sun was so nice, while the snow under the tires was crunchy as I rode some 27-miles. I was toasty warm in my layers, wool, and Lake winter shoes...
