I have a 4 mile cycle on country roads, then through a small town to the railway station before I arrive in London (and thence to pretty much anywhere depending on my day). The roads can get icy...
Do you reckon it's safer to go to freewheel? I have a nifty rear hub that can go fixed/free with a turn of a screw.
Any thoughts on winter/studded tyres?
