Today, I was humbled. I have a hundred years of riding bike in bad weather, but today, the weather beat me. I attached my trailer and headed out for the pharmacy. It was cold and rainy. The rain made my head cold, and I discovered that my jacket is no longer waterproof. Rather than proceeding to my next stop, the supermarket, I went home and took my car.

Tomorrow I will waterproof my jacket and cover my helmet with tape, which I'll remove in the spring.
