Um, you're crawling because you're letting the wheels spin there slick

Snow is pretty...for a day, usually all it lasts around here

No winterizing my bike, like Troy said, that random 70F day is right around the corner and I'll be out enjoying it

I know. The more you spin though, the more you end up just sitting there.

Throw it in second, let the wheels slowly gain momentum.
