yeah i was pleasantly surprised by those numbers as well. I have been lucky the rain has passed usually before i ride home or not been to bad to ride in. Thanks [MENTION=86492]tarwheel[/MENTION] i appreciate the kudos. my ride home is not too bad of rush hour depending on which way I go.

I have had a couple chilly rides home and when i got home nothing felt better than a warm shower, some sweatpants, and cup of hot tea.
