I is regular plan.I suggest you arrenge youself.

Tell me the how to ride rainy race.

Preparation
　The first,decide to go the race.
Most important things is not getting a cold your body.　Rainware,legwarmer,armwaramer or long type racing pants.
　Grassis may not work,you had better bring the goggle for motercycle.
　And one more jacket,branket,socks,glove,cycleware,shoes.And the cold get your energy ,hot drink and many hoods.
　The vynyl bag is very useful.
Bike
　The mudguard is useful for rainy race.（see mechanic）
　please careful to the rain into your handlegrip. It is unconfortable and dangerous.
　Putting handlegrip to handlebar by bond . The another way is tying by wire. You had better put the vynyl bag on handlebar until you start the race.And don't lie the bike.
　Tire is ordinary choiced thin type.The fat one is catch the mud and brake your riding.Front 2.0 Rear 1.95 is the common of racently. it is effective cutting off the tred pattern by knife,and spray CRC.
And the SPD pedal is setted soft.Because mud makes difficult to set in the foot with SPD.
Mental
　The most important thing is don't think "Why do I riding such a bad day?"
