Winter Weather in the UK

I was looking at BBC news and they got hit hard by severe winter conditions already. Motorists stranded overnight on the highway, etc. One of the pics on the site had a mtn bike in it (the guy was cycling to work) and he said he wishes he had a car.

I say NO WAY! Cycling in that actually looked like FUN (and you can't get stuck in it like a car)! Well, I guess if you're prepared for it. I was getting a little jealous checking out the pics, I want to ride in it.

I 'd like to hear from our British cycling friends visiting the forums. How'd you like riding in all that snow? Was it also icy out (and did you have studded tires)?
