...I had some plexi-glass handy when I received the bags and brackets, but it split out as I tried to drill it, so I tossed it...
Cannot drill plexiglass with anything larger than say 1/8 bit. Use a rotorzip (or dremel), plunge cut then work the hole bigger with concentric passes of the rotorzip bit.
I cracked my first one - but I was trying to drill it while it was in the bag. I then drilled the bag first, inserted the plexiglass and marked it, removed and drilled it flat on a piece of wood. That worked great. I used a large bit - 3/8 - with no issues.
As for our snow - that's the 18" or so we got on Thursday here in Colorado. But this being the Denver area, it's half gone already, and I would guess a lot more will be gone by the end of day today. I'm sure I could ride tomorrow to work if I wanted to... my only concern is the snow run-off freezing on the streets overnight. It's suppose to be in the 60s today, so riding this afternoon wouldn't be a problem. Last year, I hand-washed and waxed my car on Christmas day. I would say you can easily ride 50% of the time in the winter months as long as you're not going into the mountains.
