A pair of decent studded tyres costs less and because winter isn't always 34 feet of snow and freezing (unless you live here) there are probably days you can incorporate cycling into your winter exercise regime.
Snow biking is a blast... I bought the Pug because I don't use a trainer and for snow and bad winter roads the Pug is an excellent tool. For icier conditions I ride another bike with studded tyres.
