Appologies in advance if we have touched on this before but here's what I think:

Having a bike as your ONLY transportation is not a prudent thing to do, IMHO.

Riding in inclement weather is at least 10X more dangerous than when it is clear and dry and warm......even somewhat more if it is clear and dry and COLD.

Resisting the temptation to "preach" like some of the ATGATT folks do, I'll just leave it at that.
