Minsk cyclists, despite the snow and frost, do not stop riding their favorite two-wheeled vehicles.

“I took a bicycle for myself a few years ago as a replacement for a car, and now I was driving - it was already a state of mind. For example, clothes: it should be such that when you leave the house, it is cold. But then, when I am driving around the city, I am warmer than everyone around. The main thing is to insulate my hands and feet. And I don’t have any special rubber. ordered, just took a more evil protector on the rear wheel.

People react in a funny way: their eyes are mad and evil, no one expects to see such a cyclist, all wrapped up. Whatever they called me: both "turtle" and "cosmonaut". But I no longer pay attention. In general, when I drive up, the snow crunches, so people are often frightened, and some people sometimes try to push, especially if the path is narrow and it is inconvenient for them to walk. Rarely, of course, but it's very unpleasant. Someone needs excellent cleaned asphalt to get through, I don't have to: the harder it is, the more fun it is. Although it is a pity that the bike path is not cleared and it is impossible to ride on it. We rode just before the New Year - only a piece of about a kilometer was cleaned in Serebryanka. "
