To the OP, it was light, and I think that the sun was actually shining but my eyes were mostly closed because of the grit being blown into them by the wind...
I'll have to admit I became a wimp this whole winter and spring when it comes to rain. I mean, I have all the necessary rain gear, but I just didn't feel like riding in the cold while its raining. The only rain riding I've done so far was when it started to rain during an organized ride. Maybe next time.
In the mean time I heard there will be a cold front coming in starting tomorrow. Geez.
