Why I bike to work when it's snowing

1. It's faster than the metro
2. It's cheaper than the metro
3. I get to look at snow, feel snowpetals fall on me, and experience that (yes it is sappy but I'll say it) exquisite silence of snowfall, when the world's noises are muted and life's soundtrack receives a humming bassline (white noise... heh) of flakes falling around.
And I suppose: 4. I like the cross-eyed look people give while I ride in near-chador style through rush-hour traffic. Smile :)
