C'mon TJ! Are you really going to reach for the broken ankle now? ...A more likely scenario would be that your wheel or crank is cracked or broken and needs to be replaced. Most likely either you won't be injured at all, or you would have sustained very minor injuries.
Never denied that I had a winter bike, only saying that a backup bike isn't really necessary for most commuters. If you don't have a car, don't have access to public transportation, couldn't borrow a bike from somebody else or otherwise get your hands on one in a pinch, and have no other means of getting to work, then a backup bike would be a good idea.
