the murderous jerk blue car is pretty typical, thats why my middle finger gets a workout.

You have great cycle paths hey! Why don't drivers care??? Jesus, so scary and infuriating !

Ug I forgot about how awful the placement of the beg buttons were. The one on the return trip was worse you have to walk several feet onto the grass to get it

I rode it in the other direction in 1985 with my stumpjumper sport!

Thanks for your videos on this bike I live in Portland, Maine and I've been debating a bike like this for a commuting and crossover with some bike trips. I didn't really want to buy something that I'll have to customize a turn compared to the other class one or Class 2 e bikes I was eyeing, but this bike just seems so versatile! Thanks for sharing your experience with it! Are you still commuting on it in winter?

I use a dynamo front hub for lighting. It allows you to never have to remember to take you lights inside with you to charge. They are also very robust.

Very nice. And priced much better than the Ritchey Road Logic. I'm going with SOMA.

Merino wool tops from Costco are awesome- almost as nice as higher-priced brands but at a small fraction of the price (around ~CAD$25).

I'm really excited to ride my RR+ this winter! I've always loved winter, especially the snowstorms. I just put on some chunky 102mm tires last night for the season and I may add some auger studs, but they are pretty pricey. I did get some pogies and they look a bit silly, but I'd like to keep my fingers. I've had glasses since I was 3, so I've dealt with fogging for a long time. It's tricky, you either want to keep your glasses warm, or direct your exhaled air away from your eyes. I think the latter is a lot easier to accomplish, and I've had some luck wearing my fabric covid mask because it has the wire to keep the seal around the nose. I think some buffs make this problem worse because they scatter your breath or push it upwards, but a balaclava with breathing holes might be an option.

I've switched from glasses to "overnight contacts" (don't know if that's the proper name) a few years ago and haven't touched my glasses since. I really disliked normal contacts, very uncomfortable, but these I wear when I sleep at night and they slightly deform the eye so you can see clear for about 3 days. Wear them every night and you kind of recharge your eyes at night time (but I've also had good luck with them skipping a few nights, after a few days you really notice you see less). They don't work for every prescription I think, but imo it's definitely worth looking into!

Where do you get your buffs? I'd like to try ones of different thickness.

Like that you mentioned: "Don't strobe me bro! Keep it solid, especially on the pathways" I couldn't agree more!

Backup layers are important, both if it is properly cold (so minor problems might stop you) or so you can stop and enjoy winter. Exactly like XC skiing - carry something light and warm to pop on when you stop. For goggles - we are thinking about goggle inserts rather than OTG goggles.

your video-making and content ideas are very excellent. Thank you.❤❤❤

how fast is this route in summer and whats it like

You made it through the snirt!

Great video! I love the sound of tires crunching over snow and ice. How do those Ice Spiker Pro's handle the snirt/brown sugar?? Are there any tires out there that can handle in it? I find that stuff to be my commuting nemesis.

hoo wee you are twice as fast on that trail than I am during the summer, all that would've taken me 45min probably. I'm still intimidated by the snow/ice so seeing you zoom on it is giving me motivation to try it slowly. also the asmr style rides are a nice thing to wind down with before I go to bed

Nice smooth ride. Which tire size and winter gear are you using in this weather?

Curious what tires you’re using? I couldn’t find anything good wider than 2” for our skidloader

curious about fit. What size frame is it and how tall are you?

Where’s trailhead ? Thanks

Watching this in front of a fireplace in North Carolina decided not to ride bc it was 31 degrees this morning. I feel really bad. lol I’m a coward.

My Winter bike kit tip is for every 10F degrees below 50F add another breathable layer and assume an extra 10F colder when its windy.

Lovely video , thank you

i commute all year from mardaloop to the chinook mall. i use the sidewalks, hoping people have shoveled the day of the snow fall and not after tons of people have walked on it turning the snow into ice. i havent put a studded front tire yet but i think i should since front tire slide outs have led to falls on the road and sidewalks. i would rate my route green all the way in the summer, it changes to blue most of the way and black diamond along macloed trail if there is ice.

I love this rating system! Great for learning about the conditions as a “might ride in winter” viewer and I can also see this as great education for the city to understand what the needs are in the winter for riders!

Thanks as always Sean - more winter biking videos please. Would love to see some winter maintenance and gear tips!

Love watching this & seeing how you handle this stuff. It'd be fun to do some winter riding examples on other bikes too ( ie. If you ever wanted to borrow our UA once the studs are on it to show what it's like - I'd be game to collab! haha. Let's get more families on bikes! ).

All I want for Christmas is bikes and bike accessories 🎅🏽

Loved this video! As a first timer cycling in the winter, 100% agree that getting out of my neighbourhood is the toughest part of my commute. Packed ice until I hit the river path. I’m so grateful that my work commute connects to the river path. No studded tires as of now, and no falls so far so I’m definitely looking forward to trying out studded tires!

Great video! Love the ski hill analogy. Something many Calgarians are able to relate to.

Great job! I'm thinking to buy 3X3 Nine gear box. Please can you shear your experience with 3X3 hub? Is it noisy like Kindernay VII?

Hey nice vid!!!I ride the closed section fairly often and it would probably be a good idea to bring bear spray I usually see 1 bear a year on avg.Cheers!!!

Gorge indeed! 😍

the autumn colors changing is so pretty, what a great view of the milky way you look like you got too, I appreciate your audio/video on these

The covered wagon was really cool, not something you'd expect

ALWAYS the highlight of my ride on 1A!

Oh man, I wish I had known this was happening, I definitely would've gone. Did you finish the loop or go back the way you came?

Thanks for organizing Sean, it was an awesome intro into bikepacking with a great group of people!

Yum 😋 eat back those calories! 🍿

Well done. Looks it was fun 🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴

Nicely done!

Great video. Thanks for highlighting some good Calgary infrastructure. I'm going to give this a ride.

They don't even have that yellow color available on their website??? Hmmm. Thanks for the video. It's very very expensive. You can get two of their 40L bags for $175 dollors or one of these for $240. That's crazy. Insane actually

Also the high visibility option one

Dude this was awesome and made me want to do it! Thanks.

Congratulations brother. Huge accomplishment with the ride and sobriety 🎉.

I've done sections of The Greenway route this year. I disliked that major roadways like McKnight 17th Avenue and pagan trail forced me to make massive detours inorder to stay on a bike path
