Riding in snow on the way home? Woah there. Take it easy and get home safe. Closest for me was getting caught out on the bridge (GWB). The roads were perfectly clear. However the bridge sidewalk had about 1cm of light slush from freezing rain. Was a little scary going down the slight incline with the 180 degree turn on the Manhattan side. I just coasted slowly and made it down without wiping out. Having my hands on the drops also helped. Thats my tactic for high wind and crappy pavment situations.
