The OM for my Ride1Up Revv1 states that it should not be ridden in wet environments (rain and snow). I hit a small patch of water a storm drain (from someone overwatering their lawn), and the bike started to go out from under me. Riding on pavement, I would wait a day or two after the pavement dries, BUT for dirt, I would wait for it to no longer be mud. Remember, ice (I would clump packed snow into the category as ice) has no friends.After a mild start to our winter we got a cold snap. The fat bike singletrack trails were like paved trails through the woods thanks to the warming/freezing cycles. That all changed a week and a half ago with minus 25 celcius temps and a huge wind chill effect. Even though it's still better than west of my city where the temps a couple provinces over hit minus 40 it's still past my preferred riding conditions.
Will head out tomorrow though, it's due to warm up to minus 17 which in farenheit is close to minus 2.
