Cycling in the rain: essentials for riding out the wet weather in style

Cycling is a mainstream way of commuting and exercising. As we enter the autumn and winter seasons, the weather in Europe becomes unpredictable—cold and wet. Cycling in the rain might not sound like a good idea, but it has its benefits:

1. Breathing fresh air, which is good for mental health and sleep.

2. Exercising your body.

3. Less crowded roads, which means reaching your destination faster.

4. Enjoying a unique experience you don't get in other weather conditions

As Alfred Wainwright once said, "There is no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing."

How can you cycle stylishly in such weather? Here are some tips:

1. Wear waterproof and warm clothing.

2. Carry a waterproof backpack.

3. Keep your head and neck dry and warm.

4. Make yourself visible in low light conditions.

5. Use mudguards to protect yourself from water and mud splashes from passing cars.

6. Have a safe, well-performing bicycle.

7. Choose cycling accessories like gloves, shoes, and glasses to ensure a comfortable ride in the rain.

8. Opt for flat, non-muddy routes.
