Looks like my company is sending me to Copenhagen December 1st - January 15th. Of course the first thing I thought about was, 'what's it going to do to my daily therapy (riding)?'

I know that Denmark is incredibly bike friendly. Also, that Copenhagen is one of the few cities that have government sponsored programs to encourage bicycling. What I don't know is:

What is the weather going to be like for riding Dec-Jan? I've already seen the temp averages, which make it seem like a possibility (0-10c). I'm just wondering how popular cycling is in Copenhagen these winter months?
Should I purchase a bike over there or just use the ones provided for rental?
If I buy a bike over there, how cost effective is it to ship it back (considering I would want to keep it)?

Thanks for any responses.
Bjorn
