When moisture gets into shoes and clothing, it becomes really uncomfortable. Nothing can be done about the rain, but with the right mudguards you are at least protected against swirling water. The practical &#8220;tyre umbrellas&#8221; are available for every bike geometry, from racing bikes to city bikes.
