Most of the miles on my Ultra involved rain, so I'm not against riding in the rain, but getting caught in the rain is different than going for a ride in the rain.....
I don't think that Dave PLANNED to ride in the rain, but when you're on a trip and have somewhere to get to, and it's raining... Well, ya gots ta does what ya gots ta does, Olive. Ahh Gugg Gugg Gugg Gugg!
I do have a standing rule that I do NOT leave the house on the bike in the rain, and I don't intend to break it.
On that thought... my new SE Incinerator rain suit was delivered yesterday. Odd name for a rain suit,
Incinerator... but I like the suit. I think I'll wear it for the ride up to Maggie Valley for the GTG next month... even if it's clear when we start out. With my luck this year, it will almost CERTAINLY be raining by the time we arrive!
