Anyone commute long distance on the lakeshore path in the winter? I currently commute 27 miles both ways with most of it on the path (from the northern start to 31st street). I really want to take my bike out for winter commuting (haven't since last week) but don't know if my bike can handle the ice/snow. It is a Giant Cypress ST. Just put on fenders tonight (has front and back lights). Tires are Kenda Kwest (700x38c). Would be using the lakeshore detour (
