Must be nice to live where freezing rain doesn't happen often.
How often do you get freezing rain where you are? Once a year? Twice a year? You're basing an entire transportation policy on unlikely events isn't particularly helpful nor insightful.
Late November til early April is freezing rain, slush, salt, black ice, a number of other unpleasant weather conditions for riding in, even in full wet weather gear that would keep a sailor dry. I mean, I mention the *province I live in, in my first comment in this thread. Weather is a constant issue for me, most people living on the north atlantic have these issues.
Where do you live that freezing rain only happens twice a year?
Edit: location
Montréal.
And by freezing rain I mean layers of ice on the ground, ice storms, etc. Not just cold rain.
I know what freezing rain is. Like I said it's common here during winter months.
