    If you think you can bike in any weather, you haven’t biked enough 😅. There’s absolutely limits. Regardless, you don’t need to carry a change of clothes when you use your car.

    Yes, but conditions outside the limits for a bike are also generally unsafe to drive in. It’s lovely to ride on studded tyres past a line of cars that have slid into a snowbank.

    You don’t need to carry a change of clothes on a bike often, but if you do, clothes are usually light and we have suit carriers, shirt shuttles and so on. Some of which are also used to carry a change of clothes in cars.

    Some people, mostly anglophone, like to play spandex dress-up for cycling or sprint lots, but that’s a choice, not a necessity.

      My change of clothes is because during winter I get all sweaty by the time I get to work, nit because I like to cosplay Tour De France.

        Wear less, wear better, or ride gentler, unless you’re one of the (unknown size) minority that can’t ride on a cold day without sweating.
