How is your winter biking coming along?

10. In johnstown the snow not up to the level that I need boots

I do occasionally have to walk in a snow bank that goes over my tennis shoes and I can fell the snow seep inside the shoe, but as a whole most of the area has low snow coverage mostly to to the snow being trampled down by pedestrians or automobiles. Thus I generally use my New Balance tennis show (more a walking shoe). They do NOT permit sweat out or water in except from the top so I wear them. I prefer leather but I draw the line on wearing my leather sandals in the snow (I do wear them in Cold Weather, my feet run hot). When I hit the trails I switch to my Gore Tex lines Army surplus boots. Technically they are summer boots, but I have used them down to 10 degrees and had no problem using them (as I said, my feet run hot).

So yes I am using tennis shoes, I would be using sandals but they do not keep the snow away from my feet. The cold is NOT a problem with my feet. If it was just Zero Degrees and no snow or ice I would be wearing sandals while biking, for my feet run that hot.
