Well, I hope you live a block from the border on the Evanston side and your class is a block into Skokie....

I will be riding tomorrow, in Evanston and Skokie. I have a class in Skokie at 19:00, so I will really have to bundle up!

It's a possibility, but I've yet to commit.

I"ll decide in the am. Definitely will bike to my gym in Lincoln Square.....maybe will bike to Diversey and pick up El from there.

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.

Work beckons.  I must ride.

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.

What a difference a day makes.

I'm just in from a ride from Forest Park and it was extremely enjoyable.  I don't think I encountered a single moving car the entire way across Berwyn and Cicero. Internet thinks it's 15 degrees out.  No glove liners, face free, outer jacket open-- really no different from the last few colder spells we've had.  Last night was brutal-- it was like someone flipped a switch and the wind was on full for hours.

Nobody who's been riding quasi-daily thus far this winter should have any particular difficulty tomorrow.

I will be riding tomorrow.
