Last summer I left the office for a 25 mile ride at lunch. When I got to the far corner of my route it started raining. I had no rain gear, only wearing a long sleeved riding jersey as it was cool when I left. I completed the ride in the rain, no problem, no discomfort and no skidding. I did put my blinkie on for safety's sake, which when I arrived prompted this comment from one of my young friends. "You look like a volunteer fireman".

As I went to change back into dry clothes, a co-worker muttered, "anyone could see it was going to rain". I told him he was correct. I don't think he got it.
