I work 2 days/week and intend to commute rain or shine throughout the winter. I'll have a few days that are supposed to be total rest days in my training schedule that I'll take the bus for, but if it snows.... I'll use my cross bike... Our streets get totally gridlocked by a flurry... the last time it snowed I was on a bus day and after it took me nearly 2 hours to get to work (my bike commute is 25 min) I vowed if it snowed I'd always ride...
