I commute on my Saluki all year 'round. I'm in Seattle, so salt is very, very rarely an issue, but it does consistently rain here eight months/year. The Saluki has fenders and 'flaps, which keep most of the grit off the bike, and I (fairly) regularly wash the bike and lube the chain. The home-made flap made a big difference: http://www.flickr.com/photos/robharrison/7682504902/
Riding this bike gives me inordinate pleasure. Life is too short not to enjoy the wonderful things in it as much and as often as possible.
