You haven't lived until you've been out at 6 am in a 15 mph wind, air temp of 12 degrees, with lake effect snow squalls and a windchill of something like -10 and done 25 miles on a fat bike - with a stop at Bigby Coffee for a hot chocolate! Some of my most memorable rides have been in wretched conditions.

October is the sweet spot but days get pretty short in November which is unfortunate since November/early December chill is fairly tolerable here.
