The title of this post is slightly misleading because I have been unable to review this issue around the globe. But, an article I saw about riding in the rain in The Netherlands made me wonder about how cyclists react to weather in different cultures.
Unlike the U.S., where rainfall frequency varies from very dry to frequently rainy, in The Netherlands it only rains approximately 6.5% of the time. For comparison, in Seattle, Washington it rains approximately 40% of the time.
