Good reading. Agree with the point. But he seems a bit too eager in making less of cyclists outfit. Fact that commuting in a bike can be a good opportunity for exercising, meaning you want to push harder, and sweat... Pushing harder cycling wearing loose pants is just annoying. you don't go to the gym using normal clothes, do you? I like to enjoy my exercise during commuting and go straight to the shower when arrive at work, and for that proper cycling clothes do make a big difference. So yes, as I said, agree with the point that you can cycle in winter with minimum or no extra gear, but if you want to push a bit harder, you'll enjoy it a lot more with some specialised gear.
