Biking on wet ground can be dangerous but there are a few things you can do to ensure a safe ride.

• Wear bright yellow or orange so you are visible to others on the road.
• Install reflectors or lights on your bicycle.
• Wear a visor under your helmet to keep rain out of your eyes.
• Allow plenty of stopping distance. If your rims and pads are wet, it may take a while to brake. If your brakes begin to slow you too quickly, loosen your grip to prevent skidding.
• Keep your tires a little under-inflated so you can increase contact with the road.
• When it first begins to rain, dirt and oil on the roadway will make conditions more slick. Use caution.
• Consider installing fenders on your bicycle to keep rain and dirt off you and your bike.

• Before you go for your ride, drink plenty of water and pack up a water bottle. Also apply plenty of sunblock.
• Wear tops and bottoms that wick moisture away from your body to keep you cooler.
• Avoid overexertion.
• Make sure other vehicles can see you. Bright glare can make visibility difficult in daylight hours./li>

• Where multiple thin layers clothing to keep you warm. Where a weather resistant jacket to keep wind out.
• Wear wind and rain resistant pants over another layer.
• Keep your hands warm with a pair of gloves.
