I actually don't have to wait outside long since the bus goes up my street and goes around the block to turn around. I simply just run to the stop down the street when the bus goes by my house. I usually can get a ride home on days I don't have my bike.

I may give the winter a shot this year though. I've been riding like crazy over the summer and don't know if I can go cold turkey

:-) A lot of us who have tried winter biking debate about whether it's more comfortable to bike or drive a car in the winter, but we all seem to feel the same way about the comfort of riding the bus vs biking - winter biking (with decent gear) is waaaaaaaaaaay warmer than sitting around outside at the bus stop waiting for the bus to show up - your body heats up as it gets moving.

(If you don't have a decent route for winter biking, that's a different matter)
