Winter training plans?

So, what is your training plan for winter? Care to share?

I started my first actual thought out and written down training plan this week. I'm using a Sufferfest Novice training plan that I bought (already owned all the videos) and did an FTP measurment using my heart rate monitor. Now I can stay within the effort levels of the videos without just wildly guessing. This plan uses their videos along with outside riding but gives options for substituting the outside riding with indoor stuff. I'm more than likely going to be doing most of the riding indoors on a trainer if this cold keeps up. I'm looking forward to it and hopefully I can not only maintain whatever fitness I have from the season, but actually improve. The wife and I also joined a gym so we can get some weight training done. This winter we are going to be on it.
