Riding in wet conditions depends a lot in what region you live in. Riding when its wet in the Northwest, where it rains frequently is much different than riding here in the Southwest, where it does not rain very much. As consecutive days a road experiences dry pavement increases, the next time it rains will determine how slick the roads will be as the accumulation of fluids, such as oil and grease from vehicles will be greater. There hasn't been an opportunity for the rain to wash out the hazards. So here in Vegas, the roads litteraly becomes like an ice rink! The slightest acceleration or moderate braking, the tires will slide. Therefore, as Onetrack mentioned, you must plan your turns and braking well ahead of time. Unfortunately, when it rains here in Vegas, I find it necessary for me to run yellow and red lights rather than trying to stop, because braking will result in an immediate slide, which I will end up going through the intersection anyway. So it's best for me to throttle out. But like I mentioned, your riding condition in wet weather will be much better since your roads will be in much better shape.
