Well, today is supposed to be warmer, so I'm going for a long ride, no matter what. Since I'm going by the lakefront, they said that it would be a bit colder than the rest of the city and suburbs, so I'll probably head north along the lakefront and jump on Devon, then go to the North Shore trail that goes to Wisconsin and get my jollies that way. It'll still be cold, but at least there will be less idiot pedestrians to deal with and I can ride as much and as long as I want.
ChrisL, I bet if you ever came to Chicago in the winter, you wouldn't make it, even on a warm winter day... too acclimitized to your pansy Australian weather patterns!
