Your final point is the key to this question.
I always think I can make the 13.5k commute without breaking too much of a sweat, do I ever achieve this? No, because it's inevitable that some other commuter be it cyclist or motor vehicle will aggravate me and I will then endeavour to speed ahead, as if desperate to flee the stupidity vortex.

For any reasonable commuting distance (≤ 15 miles each way) personally I find normal clothes are fine. The much greater factor for consideration is will the cyclist in question be hooning it or casually cruising in?
