    I used to be very anxious over bad weather when I first started cycling more and switched modes of transport at any chance of rain. These days I always have a tiny-pack-size rain jacket and pants with me and plan my commute around the weather radar… but above of all I’ve just got pretty indifferent to rain. Most of the time it’s just a little bit, the few instances it gets more I have the rain gear with me. Thunderstorms that entirely prevent cycling are extremely rare for me.

      I ride a lot in my city and thunderstorms can happen several times a week where I live during certain parts of the year. Usually I can plan around them and if it’s really so stormy I don’t think I can bike then it’s usually better if I don’t drive anywhere either.

      The main one that gets me is when I pick up my kid from school. Just rain and I’ll bike but if there’s lightning I occasionally need to take the car for safety.
