Hey, TJ you are not alone. I am also commuting in Calgary. I bought a pair of those lobster finger nanoo nanoo gloves at MEC I also bought a shirt and pants for winter. I have not worn the cycling tights yet but the shirt is almost too warm for the weather we have been having.
I just started commuting so I have been allowing myself one rest day per week, usually Thursdays. So I missed the rainy, snowy weather yesterday. I am sure I will run into some later. I plan to commute for as long as I can. I just moved to Calgary from Lloydminster. I have heard people here ride bikes all winter so I am kind of psyched to ride in the winter. Check out Icebike.com for more advice on winter riding.
