Haha, but in all seriousness winter riding is not the same scenario as ocean vessel since you are lacking the complete "circuit" usually.
What i have noticed is to be careful of leaving salty slush connecting two different metals. For instance many bicycle forks are made out of magnesium, if you leave the bicycle covered in salt-slush there is a chance that a galvanic cell will be made between your fork and the brake bosses of the drop-outs.
