First rain free ride in a week! Don't get me wrong though, I like rain, it was nice to have a bit of a break from it though. I am amazed at how little the rain washes off the roads. Sometimes it fills the road with debris. I think this is likely due to the very little crown the roads have here. They don't worry about proper drainage as much in the desert I think. Anyway, I made it in today without a spoke breaking (knock on wood) So I think I have replaced the last of the spokes that were stressed when I hit a sizable object with the rear tire a week and a half ago. Beautiful sunny but crisp ride in today.
