My ride was an adventure at best. Thursday night
The first 10 minutes saw me crossing a creek in the middle of the road about 3 feet high. (gutter U shaped in the middle of the road) It was a total downpour roughly 1.8 inches rain for the day (a record). I had to detour around the wash, to find a bridge over it. That went fine. The headwind was the hardest thing 36 mph starting out and then going down to 25 mph. The gust were up near 40mph. The water flooding on the roads was unreal. I haven't rode in a bike lane in the last 3 days. I was in the middle lane of a three lane road at one point, and taking a wide 15 foot lane at another.

My feet were a little frozen (sandals and wool socks), My panniers have water in them after being submerged numerous times. Everything worked well. My ride will be wet if the gear doesn't dry out.

Despite all that it only took an extra half hour.

My morning ride, Thursday.
It started to rain just as I got outside. I didn't bother with the rain pants since I was going home. Rained the whole way home. I had to detour around the wash.
I combined a shopping trip and everything went fine until I rode home. A pickup truck buzzed me. I finally made it home.
