Director's Statement: They said it was too cold, that it was only for the hardcore elites and the insane. Winter cycling, they declared, just isn't something you do in Calgary. Despite the naysayers, hundreds of Calgarians put on their mittens and toques and pedal off to work every winter. From old to young, riding clunkers or high- end road bikes, cyclists in Calgary keep the bike lanes busy all year round.
