Riding a bike in the rain sucks floppy donkey dong. Poncho or not. I’ve done both. A lot. Car any day over it.
While I get there are plenty of reasons to ride a bike and many arguments against it are overblown, pretending that a bike always has a solution or that that solution is always preferred is as bad as the inverse argument.
I’m not entirely sure that’s what you are actually suggesting(rather I think you’re just positing potential solutions), it just leans that way.
There’s weeks where rain a couple of days, but them months were there’s no rain at all. O would take my bike everytime because I prefer to use the rain clothes 4 hours of a year that spend an entire week of the year stuck in traffic.
Riding bike in the rain turned out to be one of my favorite things when I figured out how to not suck at it. Ponchos are no good. Waterproof coats and pants make all the difference.
If anything is a challenge, it’s high winds and places with harsh winters. What we really need is more economical enclosed vehicles that bridge the gap between bikes and cars.
