Bike Season Question

[dynamite kid]

do you get to drive the bike often throughout the summer without much rain? when do you guys take out the bikes, in april? when do you store them in september? just askin i may move down to Calgary and may get myself a bike.

Thanks

in calgary you never know, april not likley too much gravel on the roads, this summer bikes were out in october but it was a little cold.

I rode my decent bike from about april to october as my sole means of transportation. I insure a car from october to may or so. I ride my beater bike year round whenever the roads and weather permits.
I'll probably go for a ride tonight, it's supposed to be +4 or +5 after work, and as long as I stay off the side roads which can still be really icy in spots, I'll be ok.
