In the cold, with just a backpack for supplies? I'm in good shape and love biking, still wouldn't want to take that bet.

At least it is a bet. Is there anything that can be done to help?

By staying you’re risking getting caught in cross fire. By biking 100M in the winter you’re risking frostbite, dehydration, injury, etc.
Neither is a death sentence. You just have to weigh your risks.

Doesn't seem so :/ Personally I think their best bet is to wait and see how the situation evolves in the short term. Russia does not seem to want to hurt citizens. At least, not yet...
Urgh, I hate this.

Quite. Russia is now a pariah, until Putin is gone they will not be able to live this down. I'm really disappointed that Italy and Germany block kicking them off Swift, that should have been the first response.

Same. Feeling extremely betrayed by Germany's response, as a European.

You make it sound like it's impossible.
