Folks, I'm drenched. I work in a government building and it's 70F (a warm day in this building, believe it or not). I am drenched and cold.
The good news is that the severe weather came through about 3 am, instead of 7 am, like they were forecasting, so I only had to ride in the rain, not the thunderstorm.
On the plus side, I installed a little bell from a cheesy beer mug (that said, "Ring for the next round" :roll: (niece and nephew think I'm a drunk or something)) on the handlebars. It's really cool. I rang it to say 'good morning' to my neighbor on my way to work.
Kids like it too!
Anyway, back to the weather. I am not looking forward to riding home. Especially if I'm still wet at 4:00, which I'm pretty sure I will be. I am, however, getting used to riding everywhere. Like I said before, it's kinda neat "toughing it out."
