Winter-proofing your bicycle & Winter bike maintenance

Hey, with winter pretty much upon us i thought i would share (and invite) ideas for helping your bike deal with the rain/grit of winter.

• putting a bit of old inner tube over the seat post clamp and headset bearings to help stop water getting in.
  
• give your frame (if steel) a treatment with framesaver to help prevent rust
  
• use mudguards!
  
• ensure all removable parts are well greased/lubed up
  
• use wider/non slick tyres
  
  

that's about it. can anyone else proffer any suggestions?
