How is it on a rainy day?
I think that there are many people who use bicycles everyday by commuting to a company or workplace. However, unlike cars and trains, bicycles are often affected by the weather. Especially few people use bicycles on commuting on rainy days.
I think that there are many people who use umbrellas and people who use trains and buses without using bicycles only on rainy days. As a reason
- Clothes get wet
- Luggage gets wet
- Even if you wear kappa you get wet anytime (especially trousers)
- Make-up and hair collapse
- I can not go to work as it is because it looks bad
- Dangerous because visibility is bad
And so on. But recently there are goods on rainy days countermeasures to resolve such dissatisfaction.
- Luggage rain cover
- Raincoats with pants
- Sun visor whose brim is long so that the makeup does not collapse
- Hat covering the hair so as not to collapse
- Cool shape that is okay to come usually
There is also a possibility that countermeasures can be taken without buying goods by ingenuity such as entering a large plastic bag against the fact that the baggage gets wet. Rainy day I see "one handed driving of an umbrella" occasionally, but this is a violation and imposed a fine of 50,000 yen or less.
There is something to install an umbrella on a bicycle called "Sashubei" as goods for measures against rain that came out there. There is the merit that it can be done more easily than to wear a coat in court because it only installs it. It seems not to be suitable for the day of pouring down, but it is perfect for light rain etc. Is it a violation of "Suisuboebe"? There are many people who think that
- Width 0.3 m or less
- Less than 2 m above the ground
It will not be a violation if it is.
There are a lot of bicycle goods for rainy day countermeasures like this, and if you use it well, you can commute to work and school without worrying about the weather. Also, since there are many types that make kappa compact, it can also be useful when saying, "Although it was sunny but it was raining on the way home." However, since it is dangerous and poor visibility on the day of pouring down, it is also necessary to decide the line of "using a bicycle if it is about this rain".
