bilby commented on the word winter beater
Cycling jargon - a bicycle for use during winter, so called because the harsh conditions - particularly ice and snow - exact a heavy toll. A winter beater is typically an older mountain bike or hybrid.

Mine's got a flat tire--it was fine on the ice, but I didn't see the broken beer bottle some jerk left for me.
