Bicycle commuting in the rain would be no big deal except for all the 4000lb vehicles you have to share the road with.

You can put rain gear on. Braking and steering are hardly affected. You can't go fast enough for hydroplaning to happen.

Your visibility is impaired, but visibility on a bike saddle is already infinitely less obstructed compared to a driver's seat. You don't even need windshield wipers!
