It's bike to work day here and I was part of the pomp and circumstance - which just means I had to leave early. Lots of people on bikes which is nice to see. At one intersection two guys all kitted out pulled up next to me and one guy commented on my cool, waterproof "bags." I said that's what one needs when riding in the rain - he gave me a blank stare, I could hear his brain trying to comprehend "ride in the rain"
