I've enjoyed commuting by bicycle, but when it starts pissing down rain (like, starting now) I wonder how much of a he-man I really will be.
As for safety, I think you paint one of these neon orange and everyone will see you.
Alas, the price is pretty steep, equivalent to about 3 years' commuting costs for me. But if you say it replaces a gym membership too, maybe that gets it down to 1.5 yrs. And it probably retains at least 50% of its value after 2-3 yrs.
