Riding in the snow can be miserable, but it can also be a ton of fun. This bike setup probably wouldn't work to well out on the trail, but it is working pretty good on the snow and slush covered roads of Buffalo. I highly recommend using a bike that you are not terribly fond of, because the salt just eats away at it. Also, the headgear and lights are not a joke, because cars are not used to seeing a bike in these conditions. It may not be safe for you to be out there if the car can't see you far enough in advance.

I can't tell you how much I have been enjoying my commute. It's nearly the end of Feb now, and I have 2 months of commuting under my belt, in some of the worst conditions imaginable. Yet, its all manageable if you have the right gear!

What I can't seem to find is a riding buddy...
