Trek Soho Single Speed????


After yesterday's morning commute through the snow and afternoon commute back home through the salty slush, I have been thinking hard about thinking ahead and getting for next winter's commuting. I plan to commute through the winter....no easy task.
After my salty ride home yesterday on my Lemond Poprad, I had to clean the salty mess off my bike...it was incredible how nasty and corrosive the salt is. In the five hours from the time I parked the bike to cleaning it, it had already started rusting the chain and rear cassette. I couldn't believe it....so it may look like the purchase of a new winter single speed.
Any other suggestions????
