Mountain Biking When It's Cold AND Dark

If you want to mountain bike outside during the winter (and still have a day job) there is a very good chance you will be riding at at night, in the cold.
Inspired by a recent ride with "Friday Night Ride (FNR)" friends, Kristin and Steve share how riding at night gives a new perspective on your favorite trails, while also making new trails a bit more challenging. We also discuss the gear and clothing to wear to ensure you stay warm and enjoy your time on the trails.
Cycling Together with Kristin & Steve is a production of Steve the Bike Guy and Sundin Marketing.

Riding in the dark and when its cold out is a blast, but as you touched on things get very cold very fast when stopped. When its dark and cold (and potentially icy), there's a higher chance something will go wrong, and when it does it could get real bad really quickly. For that reason, when its below ~40, I always carry a space blanket or emergency bivvy. They're small, lightweight, and could be a life-saver in an emergency.
