Seriously though: if I had 100 EUR for every time I hear this story: "I tried cycling during the winter, but then I badly fell after slipping on black ice <insert random list of traumatic physical conequences>, so I don't ride in winter anymore, it's way too dangerous." to which I'd ask "Didn't you have studded tires?", and the answer is always "no" - DUUHHH!!! - I'd be rich and admired by young flighty ladies (you thought I forgot how I started this sentence, huh?).



Correct.

Damn good to know. I'll be sure to bring my big tire irons. : )

Do you have the link for those Finnish tires? Can you buy them readily in Sweden?
