Riding Safe in the Rain – Tips for Wet Roads

Rain doesn’t have to stop your ride – if you’re prepared. With the right gear and a few riding techniques, you can stay safe even in wet and slippery conditions.

Proper Rain Gear

  • Waterproof clothing – rain suit or laminated textile gear with membrane
  • Water-resistant gloves – heated options are also available
  • High-shaft boots – keep your feet dry even in heavy rain
  • Helmet with Pinlock or anti-fog visor

Riding Tips in the Rain
