That is what I used to say when I was living in Madrid, with the lower temperatures in winter being 2-3 degrees under 0(celsius), but sun most of the year.<p>But living in Germany was a completely different story in winter going under 30 degrees under 0, 3-4 hours less daylight than in Spain or Portugal, and cloudy all day.<p>It is extremely disgusting to breath fast, like you need when in the bike when the air is so cold. Somebody should invent something for it.<p>On the other hand, in most of Spain you can&#x27;t go around in summer with your bike, but it is great in Germany, Austria or Switzerland.
