    Neither do cars work well in those conditions.
    If you clear and salt the bike paths in a timely manner, like we also expect for other roads, then bikes are a perfectly viable option even in winter.

      Weird, because mine works just fine. Also, salt is incredibly ecologically damaging. Never use salt because roads are snowy or icy.

      Car work a lot better than bikes in the snow lol

      Twice as many wheels probably means more traction, eh? I can quite safely drive through 20cm of fresh snow. Good luck biking in that.
