Chicago Bike Winter -- Tips for Winter Biking
I have been trying to get motivated to start commuting again in the face of some pretty crappy weather and roads around here, and I am finding this page for Chicago Bike Winter to be a source of excellent tips - the main one being that winter biking really requires nothing so much as the determination to do it. (Well, a bike is helpful as well.) I rode a lot last winter, and it's really not so bad - you get pretty warm as soon as you've been riding a bit. It's just getting over that first inertial impulse. I'm a little nervous about riding in NYC on wet pavement (my latest excuse), but I think I may try taking the Brompton in tom'w.

Even though you feel warm, be sure to dress warm because thats how people catch the flu..
Or so I'm told..
