Studded tires for bikes are quite common where I live.
You can get chains for bike tires too. I haven't tried it myself but I've seen mixed reviews. Meanwhile somewhere in Europe everyone bikes everywhere in the snow with regular tires because their infrastructure is awesome, snow compactor thing is awesome, and people aren't brainwashed by big automotive.
Where the fuck is that, Yukon?
Works anywhere where there's snow.
Not really. Where I live, the bike infrastructure is decent, even though it has its flaws. Right now the conditions are the worst, it's cold, we had a lot of snow recently and even though they removed most of it, there is a lot of ice still. I just have to bike slower than usual, that's all. Last year I remember like 5 days when biking was all but impossible snow was building up faster than they managed to remove it.
