Basically just dress for the weather. Also helps that it’s a small country so our commutes tend to be short 🤷
That said, when I was young and in shape, I used to ride my bicycle 15 kilometers (a little over 9 miles) up and down hills each way 5 days a week no matter the weather and I fucking loved it!
For the cold I often leave with light gloves and a jacket but often take off the jacket halfway when you get warm of the exercise
For the rain you have plastic pants and poncho to put over your clothes.
A lot of companies also have showers so you can just wear sports clothes that dry fast and take a shower and put on decent clothes. Combining fitness and your commute.
For cold I want gloves, long trousers, and closed shoes, the rest of me is hot from pedaling so I wear the same as in summer. On an e-bike I reckon someone would need to be properly dressed for the weather
Honest question: How do you deal with extreme cold and/ or rain when biking to and from work? I’m interested to learn more.
Poncho.
