Winter 2015- who's still riding?

Traffic 'round these parts dropped off pretty dramatically a few weeks ago... hard to tell from the "I rode today" thread who's still riding, as one would have to conclude that Gene is the only one out there most days by reading it....

Who's sticking it out and plans to continue to ride pretty much every day regardless of weather?

I today broke out the Bar Mitts and the Lake winter boots.  Made for a nice comfy ride.  Getting soft after all these warm winter days.

it wasnt to bed going east, i am sure the ride home (west) will be fun it the wind keeps up.

My heat wasn't working well at home, so this morning I woke up cold and lazy to ride, so I cabbed it to work today.

Smartwool liners + lobster claws = toasty warm hands!  Also loving the snowboarding pants I picked up at the REI fall sale.

Did some errands this morning and it was so nice to have the sun "on"! I got warm quick. Streets were great except the corner iced-over puddles. Riding downtown later will be the real test!

I rode this morning, it was beautiful. I ride everyday that I can, it makes me very happy.

Commuted today and it was much "warmer" than I expected given the temp in the low teens.  Big thanks to the no/minimal wind!!!!  Also, the streets were great - no frozen puddles or salt on my route.

I rode last yesterday/last night and that West wind combined with 15 degrees...eyes watering and realizing why people wear Balaclavas.
