For European riders, streetcar tracks, seemingly everywhere, are particularly troublesome since they often run parallel with the road which does not allow the rider to transverse at a sharp enough angle. Tires slid along the wet tracks instead, causing the bike to fall. Cobblestone roads, also commonplace, are equally nasty since well worn cobblestone is as slipperly as ice when wet. Avoid cobblestone and always cross tracks at a sharp angle. If not possible, slow to a crawl until safely past.
