Cycling Safety Tips for Rainy Days

Although modern weather forecasting is accurate, there is always an accident. In the spirit of protecting the environment, I began to ride a bicycle in a green way, and the result unexpectedly met with rain. The rainy road is slippery and it is inconvenient to put on a raincoat. It will be very troublesome for a moment to get into the wheel and be splashed by the passing vehicle. Here are some tips to share with you, let us more effectively avoid these troublesome things.

"Control speed" is the key skill. Speed ​​is the key to crashing. No matter how good the technique is, if it is too fast, it may still be slippery. It is recommended that you control the speed of rainy riding at 10 to 20km/hr, and tires. The grip on rainy days is poor, so no matter what, it is necessary to "slow down" with the bike.

Slippery "white line"

Because of the material relationship, the odds of riding on a white line on a rainy day are doubled. Therefore, the white line on the road is better. It is better to flash farther away, as well as traffic signs, manhole covers, gutter covers, and grounds for riding on the road surface. If marble and tile materials are the same reason.

Avoid "emergency car"

When cycling is recommended, try to push the center of gravity backwards, and then use the two hands together to pick up the car. It is better not to scold it until it is safer. In addition, you must be calm when you are in an emergency. Because the brake system of a bicycle is the opposite of a locomotive, most of them belong to the “front left, back, right”. If you accidentally pick the wrong side, you will inevitably roll over several turns.

“Water Margin” Trap More often we don’t know how deep the blisters are. To avoid unnecessary bumps, we see the blisters can bypass and bypass. However, we must pay attention to the left and right rear wheels when we get around. In order not to escape the water but to collide with the next car, it is not good!

Lagging the traffic lights from the ground will make the tire grip worse, so you have to lengthen the brake time. In particular, many traffic lights now have a countdown device for seconds, which allows them to grasp the seconds and distances of their own cars in order to ensure safety.

In addition to having a "reflective device," the "car lights" must be bright enough to select a bright enough headlight. If there is a reflective strip on the raincoat, it is best.

Bring “windbreaker”

If you wear a windproof mirror on rainy days, you can see the rain and clear the line of sight, choose a mirror that is anti-fog, and more secure.

"Fenders" to help you stop the trouble, especially the commuter family must! When it rains, there are no fenders, and friends can only take orders and go home to wash clothes.
