Equinox approaches...shall we have a fall/winter commuter challenge again?

[girlsubobscura]

I just aquired a pair of snow goggles to fit over my (very strong) prescription eyeglasses, and a pair of Ortlieb waterproof panniers. So bring on the nasty weather! (Although as todays temps are in the unseasonably balmy 70's, maybe not until next week )

Way to go! Just to warm you, after I bought my expensive rain gear one rainy fall, it was several weeks before I had a chance to use it. It seemed that every time it rained, by the time I got my rain gear on and walked outside the rain was drying up!

I concluded that Goretex has magical properties. It keeps the rain off the entire area you are biking through.

I dunno about this. I'll be in a different city soon.

Long story about this one but it will be a colder place.

OK, after several weeks of travel then under the weather-ness, I'm ready to be all in for the challenge. I'll collect everyone's goal under an "official" challenge thread!

Can I still join?

It's brutally cold where I live, but I refuse to buy a parking permit at the university where I study (it's a racket!).

My goal is to ride every day that it's warmer than -25C, walk when it's colder and/or really snowy, and only drive to campus 1x per week maximum. Depending on what type of winter we get, this may or may not be reasonable.
