Default How to protect climbing roses during winter??

I was hoping someone could help. My husband built a rose arbor this
spring and we have two climbing roses growing well up both sides.
Trouble is we live in the Chicago area and it's situated in a wicked
W--E wind tunnel behind our house (zone 5). How can we secure the
roses for winter? I'm best with plants that like to be ignored! Any
help would be appreciated.
