When I first started year-round commuting, I resolved to ride every day up until a certain date (Dec. 15 IIRC). By then it was so enjoyable that I just went ahead and decided to ride all winter.
Once you get used to it, you realize that cold will never stop you from ricing. The only thing that can stop you is snow and ice on the pavement. And here they always clear the roads within 12-24 hours. Side streets and bike paths might take a bit longer to be cleared. But in general, if a car can get through so can a bike.
