My only tip was to layer my shoe covers with a plastic bag before putting em over my shoe, just to be extra sure nothing got in. Can't ride with meat-stumps!!!

this may be silly...but I think it is worth telling people that wearing a helmet in the winter will keep your head safe AND warmer! I didn't know that until this last week -- but boy does it make a difference (plus maybe some more of these peeps will start wearing one and by spring, be hooked!) -- layering a hat and hood under the helmet makes it even better...just need a little strap adjustment.

Actually I think there was a good Sheldon Young tip (genius of all bikes) which was to tape up the vents on your helmet, so to retain the heat that comes off.
