Hang on, the sweating goes down with more experience? I was under the assumption it'd just stay that way.

What it really comes down to for biking in the winter is how cold it is vs how much biking itself warms you up. I think most of the time it's probably fine, but there are definitely conditions where it'd be unsafe but a car wouldn't be.

What bothers me is that climate change is making those conditions more frequent, but biking is a good solution to combat emissions too.
