The rain has added benefits too:
1.Watching the water squirt out of your shoes w/ each down stroke!
2. Nobody else on Kelly Drive MUP ( kind of like when you going to the movies and are the only person there)
3. Dried/caked salt now washed from my cycling gloves!
4. Get to use the pannier cover I paid for but am generally to lazy to put on (It was really pouring today!
)
5. Rain helps you wedding ring shine so a co-worker can find it on the sidewalk (where I dropped it getting my keys out) and post an e-mail about a lost wedding ring. Man am I LUCKY!
6.The mere threat of rain will limit the number of i-pod wearing recreationists on the MUP on the return trip home!
