If I have to leave for work before dawn, then I usually take the lunchbox. If I have the luxury of commuting during daylight hours, then definitely the bike.

I pretty much stopped commuting when it became longer to gear up then get to work so I guess that puts me in the "No" column.
RJ's only riding because the newness of his bike hasn't worn off yet.

I'm getting to that point.. thermal undies + long sleeve shirt + jeans + baraclava + jacket + boots + gloves + helmet = could have been at work 5 minutes ago.

I moved in the spring and still ride... but you get the point. I only ride in the best of conditions these days or when I want to park right next to the door.

I never thought I'd say this... but it's just getting too damn cold. If it's below 40* when I've got to go somewhere I'm probably taking the car.

It was certainly chilly last night when I rode home from work. Thankfully I have a short commute so it's not all that bad.

Sidemount radiators keep hands warm at stoplights, sort of... I had the throttle pinned open while waiting at a light and the temp never got over 180┬░

You guys ain't gonna believe this ish, but I saw a guy riding today coming home from work on 295 trying to get on to 495 north. His jeans was soaked and he didn't look like he was enjoying the ride. It was raining heavily at the time and the traffic he was in, was moving about 20 mph. Damn!

I rode home in this shit too, but at least I was smart enough to make myself mostly waterproof.
