Find their Winter Biking Tips Below!

1. Set Your Limits

Make decisions that make sense for your lifestyle and comfort level, such as avoiding days when temperatures are below freezing or when it snows. Fortunately, most Arlington winter days don’t meet either condition.

2. Safety Checks

Cold temperatures lower tire pressure, so check your tires more frequently to avoid an untimely flat. Winter also means fewer daylight hours, so make sure you have front and rear lights for visibility and are wearing light color or reflective clothing.

3. Layer Your Clothing

Avoid bulky coats, which can cause you to overheat quickly. Instead, layer lighter-weight clothes you can add or remove as your body temperature adjusts. Start with a lightweight base layer, such as Merino wool (avoid cotton, which absorbs sweat), then add a lightweight hoodie or fleece and a windproof outer layer. These layers create mini air pockets that trap heat and keep you comfortable throughout your ride.

4. Cover Your Extremities

Fingers and toes can quickly go numb in the cold, so gloves are essential and can be layered with a liner for added warmth. For your feet, leg gaiters or shoe covers help circulation and keep toes warm, though thick socks are a good start. Covering your ears and face is also important, so consider a balaclava (similar to a ski mask) or a hat with a face mask on especially cold days.
