I've found that these "snow sludge" conditions that happen here with steady heavy snowfall mixed in with salt, are the hardest to ride in.
Completely slippy and "greasy" as I call it, and the most workout I ever get riding to work. I haven't ridden on as many tire combos as you, but a few, and its always been just plain hard and a heck of a workout.
Riding in this stuff certainly adds to my tally of not putting a foot down while getting a serious front end push and big understeer and maintaining power to keep moving so the understeer finishes and you keep going.
tomorrow we are supposed to be getting 15-25cms and a high of -5c so it probably is going to get greasy.....
