This article appeared in the Globe & Mail last week. From the title, it sounds like it'll be about how winter biking isn't too hard, despite the perceptions to the contrary, but it's essentially an article about Mike the Bike, who recycles and repairs bikes in Kensington Market:
That's about it for the content about winter biking, but if you want to know more about Mike the Bike, this article is for you.Despite being born and raised here, there's a part of me that feels I won't be truly Canadian until I ride my bike through the winter. So to prepare for this, I bought some ridiculously expensive mittens from Mountain Equipment Co-op, a pair of booties to go over my cycling shoes and lots of biodegradable chain lube.
But my brakes were getting a little mushy and this was not a problem I wanted to put off until the spring, so I went in search of a good -- and green -- repair shop.
More at the Globe.
