It has been reasonable the last few weeks, but I also went to games in December in -20 °C weather, with bumps and bruises from having slipped on ice to show for it.

The point is that Monahammer's original statement, that ~1.3 km walk along the river path with buskers and "other things" "doesn't sound too bad", is only true in nice weather. There are lots of nights during the hockey season wherein a >1 km walk outside is horrendous.

Riding in truly cold weather isn't a cold problem, it's a money and convenience problem. It takes much longer to put all the gear for it, and then you have to take it off at the other end and store it somewhere.
Who the hell is talking about 'riding'? I'm not riding a bicycle to a frickin' Flames game...
