Got lucky and hit a "window" between rain showers this morning. I had about decided to drive if it was foggy or raining this morning, after struggling to see the road on my ride home yesterday afternoon with a heavy mist totally fogging up my glasses. It started raining heavily soon after I got up this morning, but the line of showers passed by the time I was ready to leave and the fog had lifted. It turned out to be a great ride with temps in the mid-40s, but I had to take it easy on corners due to very wet streets. Skidded to stop at one traffic light that changed to red right before I got to it. My Craft rain jacket is perfect for riding in this kind of weather, but gets too warm when temps are higher than the mid-50s.
