I think that today was the first ride in the rain this year. It has been a dry summer and although there have been some rainy days, I don't recall purposely avoiding riding in them, just luck I guess (unless I really have forgotten about riding in one or two). The rain started out very light, then progressed to a heavy rain but within 6-7 minutes, it was done and no rain afterwards: that was shortly after 6:30am and it hasn't rained since, just my luck. Had I waited 15 minutes, I would have avoided the rain but would have been late for work as I am starting early to leave early.

I took it easy so that I didn't slip on the wet surfaces but traffic was light so I could go wherever in the lane I wanted.

Enjoy the weekend!
