Glad to know I'm not alone. We had the 21 straight days of sub-freezing temps including a commute at -11 degrees F, a new personal best / worst. As a commuter of 19 months, finding myself midway through my second winter, the question "Why am I doing this?" has played out in my mind frequently as I've ridden to and from work this January.

Statements like "You must be nuts" or "What's wrong with you?" from co-workers and other people I encounter have more sting then before.

I think I'll ride through this to better days, but this January has been a Mother.
