Winter activities can mean quite a lot of things. If  your area gets a lot of snow and ice; and giving up cycling until Spring is anathema to you; check out icebike. If, like me, you live where year-round riding is possible, keep riding. Just don\’t burn yourself out before Spring! Maybe even take a day off here and there.

If you\’re in Russia, where I hear that Winter can be quite gloomy, perhaps a ride in a troika would lift your spirits. Just think of it! Gliding along over the snow, perhaps under the full moon. Or even the midnight sun?

Snow is very rare here, but it it weren\’t, I think I might like to learn snowshoeing. I\’ve seldom had the fun of building a snowman, making snow angels, or participating in a good old snowball fight.

Other winter activities take place indoors; there\’s all the culinary cavorting. Cookies, roast turkey (or roast goose, in some countries), eggnog, plum pudding … we need all those outdoor activities to burn off all the calories!
