    Makes me curious - are there some sort of specific winter tires for bikes? I’ve been riding mine around with its regular tires fine enough, but I do stay on the plowed parts of the roads. Would be cool if I could just drive through the actual snow

      I don’t cycle when there’s snow on the road (bc I hurt myself that way once), but know from others there are spike tyres for bicycles. Keep in mind though that this still won’t give you the amount of stability you may be used to from something four wheeled. Be careful not to lean into turns too much, ime that’s the situation where slipping is most likely.
