I actually like riding the bus quite a bit.  What's the "indignity" thing about?
I'll be riding tomorrow though... not sure why I wouldn't be.  Cold is completely conquerable, just give me dry pavement.

I am sure I will be out there; no matter how cold I am or how windy it is riding a bike will always beat the indignity of riding the CTA.

Lord do I hate the bus.

Yep! I'll do my wee commute in the a.m. and afternoon, then ride 8mi to a meeting downtown at 6 - that might be chilly, but it will be a great test of my full-on winter costume - first time this year! My 6mi roundtrip tonight was just fine. The option of towing my bike on the train for the ride home is there, but waiting for trains can be a lot colder than cycling...

I'm in, with my five mile commute. Looking forward to the challenge, at this point.

I'll be on the bicycle! According to Weather.com, Monday & Tuesday are supposed to be the coldest this week.

As of now testing the new fit @ the lakefront and all places in between.  Cold stiff winds are alot of fun to test aerodynamics and build strength :)

Already been riding; it's a touch chilly out.

We have reached goggle temps for me, I hate frozen tears.

I rode in (2.7 miles). It was supposedly 13F at Wells/North. Tailwind was from the north, so it felt very still. In my down coat, ski gloves and thermal boots, it felt fine.

Yea. Not to bad cold wise but the wind while heading west on Roosevelt and Ogden was not fun. My normal 5 miles is 25 minutes or so...this morning it was 40 and I was a multilayered sweatcicle. (At 8am) Only saw two folks today both headed north on canal.

Made it in and was just fine except for I overdid it a bit on the upper body.  What I wore today might be just right for tomorrow!  I was moving a little slower than normal, too.  Riding home northwest bound might be a little more interesting.
