Don't try to use "bad weather" as an excuse to not use the bicycle! /s (cdn.masto.host)

The Dutch headwind championship was just held, after it was cancelled last year because of too much wind

Feel free to downvote me:

While I hiked when it was -40°C outside, I really despise biking against headwind especially since the roads here are in disrepair and the inclines can be brutal.

Oddly enough tho I really enjoy biking 20-40km and take the inclines so I'm a bit of a weird one😅

Why downvote? I intended this post as not serious at all!

And everybody has his own preferences, in terms of accpable weather for biking 🙂

The sarcasm flew over me so I wasn't sure how my comment would be received😅
