Distribution: Sorry but riding to work< 18 miles> in a heavy rain storm by bike is possible, but not something I would enjoy doing. As I live in the area where the most deaths are recorder every year from lighting strikes, in the US, riding to work in such weather can also kill me. Now on a nice day, when I have gotten up earily enough, cycling those 18 miles can be fun and highly enjoyable. This AM I am going to cycle 24 miles one way to meet my mother for a meal and then cycle around all day and I am not going to used my van, however if it was driving rain, I would take the van this time. Cycling have it place, but it is not a 100 percent all weather replacement for other means of transportation. I will agree that being told to get off the road by some asshole, driving a old junk car that is not worth as must as my new touring bike is annoying, but I don't think that a bumper stricker will help stop that kind of behavior.
