I count it down every year, and I live in the south (US) where it doesn't get all that cold.

I can't wait. I admit the cold weather has kept me off my bike except for a few unseasonably warm days. The trainer is nice but not a full substitute for actually getting out and riding.

I did my coldest ride of the year yesterday. It was 54°, no sun, little windy. I was cold all day. I'm spoiled by our 80° LA winter. I don't know how you guys do it, where it gets really cold.

Don't know where you ride there. Every time I've been to S Cali people drive like Death Race 2000 on every road

I live on the edge of LA county but I ride mostly in Ventura County when it's not on fire. Better roads, better weather, less traffic.
