Weather protection comes with a good jacket you can buy with the money you dont spend on cars.

I rode in all weather for years. Rain or shine, you really do get used to it.

    Same. And that includes snow and ice, for those at the back that think that riding a bike in winter is only possible in LA. If people can walk in that weather, people can ride a bike even more easily as the exercise keeps you warmer.

    Jacket doesn't do shit for rain. Believe me, I'm an Aspie and I have too much sensory issues for getting out of home in bad weather. The day it rains is the day i WFH. All the problems stem from the fact that the jacket is too close to the body, generating sweat (and I already sweat too much without it), not to mention it's not watertight. An enclosed velomobile would probably solve the problem, but I don't think this sort of vehicle is legal in Poland and can guarantee getting to the office as fast as I'd on a motorcycle or even a moped.
