How To Be Safe If You're Cycling This Winter


If you're braving the cold on two wheels this winter,
Dean Roberts, of Consolvo Bikes, in Saint John says make sure you have the right equipment.

He tells us, "A lot of people that aren't familiar with winter cycling can get in over their head a little bit, if they don't have the right equipment."

Roberts tells us winter cycling is picking up in Saint John. 

He says if you're going to try winter cycling, make sure to have studded tires and warm clothing. If you choose not to, the ice can be very dangerous. He says, it can be very sudden, and you don't see it under the snow.
