Don't really know much about the cycling community here. The season is so short! But lately I've been visiting various LBS in wishful anticipation of cycling season, and so far all good experiences.

We got 2" of snow today. I decided Christmas had come early, so I went to buy a trainer. Guy in the LBS asked me if I had purchased a bike from them in the past, and I told him it was my first time in the store since I was new in town. He apologized for the weather.

I signed up for a club ride but it is cancelled this week.

I do see some signed bike routes around town, both on-street and separated multi-use. Haven't been able to explore them much, but that will change too.

There are some very sturdy people who seem to cycle year-round here. I really have no way of knowing anything about whether that can be correlated to class or immigration status.
