Bike vs. Bus

Since we are now into the unpredictable Wisconsin fall, every day is getting closer to winter and our first snowfall. While biking to work now on some days is less than appealing, it’s soon going to be very impractical. I’ve purchased my first bus pass and looking at the math, if I can ride my bike to work a few days a month still, it makes sense to buy 10 ride passes and use them when I can’t ride. The mornings are getting darker fast and I will finally stop procrastinating and buy bike lights this week (I would rather be safe than sorry!) I still need to pick up a decent pair of gloves, because right now my hands are feeling darn cold by the time I get to work. I found the mobile bus tracker website, but I noticed that the time seems to adjust as the bus is late and keeps moving back by the minute until the bus arrives. Has anyone had a good experience with the mobile bus tracker? Am I just not reading something right?

I read an article the other day about How to make any job better -- it mentions riding your bike to work so sounds like you are killing two birds with one stone -- saving money and improving job satisfaction. Here's the article if you want to check it out:
