I have gone several months without a car, biking to and from work. I have done the shopping thing with a backpack, though I have found it easier to walk. The truth is that in the winter it is impossible to bike to and from work, even if there were no snow it is too dark. It is far too busy where I work and people are far too careless for me to feel safe on a bicycle. Not to mention that bikers face a risk going out at night alone, several women have been knocked off their bikes with bats and raped. Sorry but my safety comes first. I have already been hit by a car once and am not willing to risk biking in the dark if it can be avoided.
