I don't worry about the elements at all. If I'm willing to ride in that
day's weather I'm willing to leave my bike out in it :>). but I do cover
my leather saddles. I only worry about thieves...

If security is at all an issue (one of our offices has outside bike racks
where thieves lock crappy bikes and "shop") , I'm afraid I'd say take a
nice-riding beater. If rain is the only issue, there's nothing that can't
be fixed by a good saddle cover and fenders.

I would and do just ride my Homer to work. I wrap the Brooks saddle with a
plastic shopping bag in bad weather. In late fall, I squirt some Boeshield
in the frame through the seat tube, water bottle bosses and frame vent
tubes to help protect against rust. I also give the frame a coat of wax.
