I've seen them biking when it's raining as well, but I think their roads and paths are prepared for it. As in, the surface isn't as polished as the streets here, so it's much harder to slip, unless you're as clumsy as... me :(
Oh and, you should have seen my dutchie friends biking on ice this winter, absolutely impressive.
- dcminter 18y agoRain is not unknown in London. But even though you can do it cycling is unpleasant when it's raining particularly when, despite the carping, the alternative of public transport is as good as it is here. The Brompton lets me make the decision at the time rather than first thing in the morning.
