We've been lucky this late-autumn. Not so much rain to speak of. But there have been days where the skies opened.
If you've ever wondered why fenders are standard on bicycles in mainstream bicycle cultures... here's an illustration.
Wind, combined with rain, isn't our favourite weather.
Rain or not, that magical moment when the bicycle user propels the bicycle into motion is still our favourite.

Why no rainwear?
Coats? Check. Hats? Check. Boots? Check.
They're just popping down to the shop, not sailing the wrong way 'round Cape Horn.
Rainwear? We wear the same thing as pedestrians on our bicycles in mainstream bicycle cultures.
How about a photo of a bicyclist holding an umbrella?
For a 15 minutes ride to work the calculation on a rainy morning is: my coat can resist the rain on top, my hair is protected by a wooly hat, my leggings will be a little wet, but will dry of in less than 15 min.. No, I will not return to the appartment to dig out my rain pants (where did I put them?)
