Bicycling 29 miles in the rain This is what happened yesterday: wake up at 7:30 leave at 7:55 it's raining, HARD 6.5 miles into the ride...... I could catch the bus for the remainder of the ride to Ferndale 8:22 but I decide to keep riding. Arrive at Mt. View Elementary School 9:07 Check off kids walking and biking to school 9:07-9:25 Leave for meeting out on Meridian Street in the county 9:26 ride ride ride in the POURING rain 9:26-10:09 Arrive for meeting cold, wet, and hungry 10:09 Sit in meeting, still cold, still wet and still hungry 10:10-12:00 Ride home, it FINALLY stoped raining!! So it was a total of 29 miles, most of it in the rain. I think I have to adjust my bike seat because my knee was KILLING me last night. It's OK today though. The main problem I have when it's raining is that my glasses fog up or get so soaked that I can't see very well. I think I need some mini windsheild wipers for them. :-) |
