Ah you're in Chicago. I rarely see 0F in the NYC area here. Actually, it never got that cold last winter if I recall. Chapeau to you for sticking it out. I probably would switch to cross country skiing if there's snow. But I can see that skiing would be more difficult than cycling in the city. I used to live in Glens Falls as a kid. When we had snow on the ground, I could step right out my back door onto the skiis and use the cornfields that surrounded us.
