Instead I can just swap the indoor wheel for the outdoor wheel and be outside in minutes.
Mind you, it doesn't take THAT long to swap a tyre either. I'm not 100% convinced it's quicker to swap the wheel and adjust the indexing, but I'm still going with this approach as well. Especially as in NM, there's riding all year round outside. I've take the motorbikes out on a Saturday, driven an hour and skied on a Sunday before.
