Seoul's cafe culture is so strong but love to see the contrast with the old-school restaurants. That seolleongtang literally made my mouth water here at 5am.
I bike all year in Sweden, I do recommend studded tires even if it makes cycling exhausting. But it’s also wonderful, the quiet and emptyness. I agree about 1st of December for the Christmas tree, need all the shining lights in the darkness
Sourdough ✅ Salted Butter ✅ Marmite ❌ ❌ ❌ 😂😂 Great video, right about the UK. It’s just wet all the time here now til April as you know. Happy Christmas!
That's a lovely pair of black boots that you have. When it started to snow heavily out here in the wilds of Gyeonggi, I thought to myself to check this channel, thinking "I wonder if that guy is riding in the snow?" Suspicion confirmed!
Seoul sounds a lot like where I live in the states. The temp changes so fast. I have not ridden my bike in years until this summer again. My winter clothing selection needs to be built up a little. With a high of -5.5 C° today I think I need to get some merino wool to create my base layer. After that I am not sure what I will need. It will be fun to figure it out all over again. Thank you for sharing and may your wheels be steady and fast! Take care.
I live in the PNW and recently discovered the wonders of wool outerlayers! I have a pair of wool pants and a wool coat which I wear over some long sleeve base layer/midlayer things to keep away from the scratchiness. Wool is special because it will continue to keep you warm even if it gets wet (unlike down puffers) and it still does a pretty good job of making moisture just roll off if you’re in light/medium rain. For all but the heaviest rain I prefer wool over a rain jacket because wool is far more breathable than any jacket, and ponchos do provide airflow, but are a bit of a hassle while cycling.
@@jarperhones5364 Thanks for the info. I will for sure check out your ideas for keeping warm. I heard that about wool keeping you warm even when wet. Thanks again.
Thanks 🚲😀👍 Enjoy the snow, I have never seen snow in my city. Maybe.. some day. Do you recomended any kind of tires for the snow? Thanks and cheers from Mexico🚲❤️
Mudguards are more important than clothes in the UK. Mudguards, waterproof jacket and cap. Trousers that dry quickly, like hiking trousers. I usually brought a change of clothes with me when I commuted in wet weather back at home.
This Sunday I rode from Asan to Pyeongtaek, ~50 km round trip. It's fascinating how microclimates work. Asan was mostly snow-free and nearly dry; the Pyeongtaek bike path along the Anseong River started out OK, but at the halfway point, degraded to awful slush. Since you're going to talk about winter gear, have you ever used lobster gloves (삼지장갑)? Bought a pair in Chongno recently and tested today; seem much warmer than regular gloves.
A very nice video, it's always so much fun to watch how you go about your everyday life on your bike. Which bike stand do you use on your bike at 01:28?
I'm usually in the region of city hall on Sundays. I'll look into that coffee shop. Thanks for the recommendation. We have some bike infrastructure in Incheon as well.
I train for snow cycling all other seasons. Snow cycling involves a lot more power output, but it's excellent exercise! Buy that fat tire Surly! I love my Surly Pugsley!
“@ dry @ss, brings @ smile on my face.” How does one bring a smile on one’s face? Simple. A dry ass. Flower poetry.😊 Someone once said, A dry ass on my face brings a smile. Not sure who, but well said you.
I tried riding my mountain bike in winter once. I used low pressure tires for grip and was riding very slowly and carefully. I tried going up a small curb from the road, the rear tire slipped out to the side from beneath me and I fell onto the sidewalk. Maybe I was riding _too_ slowly, but I probably won't try to bike in snow again unless I use a fat bike 😅
I recommend you try riding the bike you have in the snow again before buying a whole new bike. Different types of snow provide super variable riding conditions, even if on a fatbike. I think next time it snows you should try it again, just be careful and go easy on the curbs :) I love riding in the snow on my mtb
Thanks for the early morning treat! Found you theough your tokio ride and binged a lot of the other videos. Very enboable and showed me a side of biking i havent considered so far. Chill and realxed. Also i love the filming and edit! I always wonder how you are filming the decents, both hands on the bike. Somehow you dont seem to be the typ for a gopro chestmount.
Having been in midwest in the States for 4 months, I started to miss those authentic 국밥 so much, and also miss dry winter in Korea because here it's quite humid and rains a lot, which I guess is similar to winter in London. I'm looking forward to seeing your winter gear!
We only get maybe 2 days of 1”+ of snow where I live in the US and people try to make those 2 days as the excuse for not making cities more bike friendly. Otherwise the weather is nice and dry and almost never dips below 20F, which means it’s perfectly bikeable and nice for riding.
Build the infrastructure and people will use it, whatever the weather. Just look at Scandinavian cities, Copenhagen in particular. I was there last winter in the snow and there were thousands of people getting around on bikes.
Does it ever get snowy and icy enough in Seoul to need studded tires? You don’t ‘need’ them to commute here (Minnesota, USA) most days in the winter, but they are nice to have. And there are definitely some days where they are the only thing keeping you upright.
The seasons here truly just go from 0-100 in a few days it kinda messed with my sense of time lol. Campus life was amazing with the snow. I was just getting into snowball fights with friends and random people in between classes. I stopped using the public bikes after it started getting colder but I'm thinking now I should hit up a bike path before the semester is over and I have to leave :(
Dang dude, y’all got snow before Ottawa Canada! But yes, looking forward to riding in the snow this year for sure :) (we’ll see how I feel after a few months of it though haha)
I would love to live somewhere like southern Spain where it is still warm throughout winter but I would be interested to experience a "dry" winter... a lot of people from North America and Eastern Europe say British winter's feel colder and more unpleasant even though the temperature is higher, just because of the dampness that pervades here
Biggest fear in winter riding is salt destroying my components. In eastern Canada, road salt is used everywhere for about 4 months straight. How's it in Seoul?
Haha, they'd never clear bikepaths here that quickly. They dont even bother clearing anything but main streets. We have like three or four days of snow per year. I have a hardtail with 2.4 tires and leave all the slow and unsure car drivers behind.
this made me feel warm inside, like I was watching a Christmas movie on a weekend
I'm so glad!
I can't believe you didn't buy the Londod bus. What a blunder
100% 😂
Still regretting it.
So funny 😄🚌

Hello from Malmö! This video has inspired me to brave the cold and go for some coffee and a cinnamon bun :)
Yeah! I had an amazing one in Söderberg & Sara. You should check it out if you haven’t already.
Love that place!
Where did you get them in London? Any recommendations?
@ Pavillion bakery in Victoria Park, Colombia Road or Broadway Market. So good.
@ Thanks very much . I’ll try to check them out. 😋
Awesome! Riding in snow isn’t better, just different. It mixes things up a bit. I like how snow makes the world quieter, and skids easier
True
Seoul's cafe culture is so strong but love to see the contrast with the old-school restaurants. That seolleongtang literally made my mouth water here at 5am.

None of my tires are the best for snow but it's not regular enough for me to change. Studded tires would be ideal for regular snow.
Your shots and content are beautiful! Thankful you for your videos Any Particular camera or just GoPro?
Thanks! Insta 360 go 3 and iPhone

Haven’t tried them. I like my Danish leather gloves and then sometimes use the Bar Mitts when it gets really cold.
Ive been enjoying your videos for quite a while now, i was wondering tho, how far is your commute?
About 5km if I take the shortest route.
A very nice video, it's always so much fun to watch how you go about your everyday life on your bike. Which bike stand do you use on your bike at 01:28?
Can’t remember the brand of this one but I think it’s exactly the same as the Velo Orange double kickstand.
The more snow the more fun it is!
Disagree haha
I sure do bike in the winter. I bike all year round.
🚲 ❄️
Love winter riding in Canada :) Makes all the old routes new again.
Yes it does!

The hardy cyclist in Korea! Not sure if you have seen pogies for your handlebars. Wiggys makes a really good set.
I have some Bar Mitts but I actually get too hot if I use them above -10c.
thank you for the video :)
Welcome!
That’s a nice looking headlight. What’s the model?
Lezyne. Can’t remember the exact model.

Not for more than a couple of days luckily. I’d go for studded tires if it was icy the whole winter.
I was pretty shocked when I went to Korea last year as someone who wakes up at 6am waiting for coffee places to open at 9am was torture! Haha.
It blows my mind that some are open until 10pm or even later.

Biggest fear in winter riding is salt destroying my components. In eastern Canada, road salt is used everywhere for about 4 months straight. How's it in Seoul?
Only for the few days of snow per year. If it was more constant, I'd get a winter beater bike.
Some snow in the uk already this winter...No problem for an old 26er mtb
Perfect ⛄️
@probablyriding Your videos are a total joy....keep it up.
I only have a Brompton. It’s very sketchy in the snow and ice so sadly no I wouldn’t
Could be fun… briefly…
