Thanks to all of you for voicing your opinions and giving me advice! I appreciate this forum precisely because of people like you!
I'd recommend, try a test ride on the weekend first. If you can. And see how you feel. Also, try a multimodal version. Bike to a bus/train. And use the train to finish your commute.
I am with you on not changing clothing. There is an easy alternative: ride slower. You won't get too sweaty. Just bring a few just in case supplies: baby wipes and deodorant are sufficient.
