Danish citizens cycle in rain with no issue.

Of course the workplaces accomodate for that.

You just need the whole society to revolve around bike transport, and it will become normal to ride in the rain.

I'm Finnish and ride in the freezing rain (literally).

But I can see the advantage in not having to dress up in 8 layers and driving goggles to go sweat to a supermarket for some snack you're hankering.

Also, bigger stuff require a cart and yeah sure you have them on bikes.

But I've been biking for everything for years, used to have a car and I just miss the convenience. Cheapest pure electric cars are getting to be around 5k here so I'm gonna get one of those at some point. I'd love if it would also fit my bike though. It's a 26" but foldable but it's not exactly small folded and with my extensions to the headset.

Yeah… pretty sure Denmark doesn’t get regular thunderstorms or hail storms.
