Rain was forecast for later that morning. People in the group I was assigned to ride with were taking their dear sweet time packing up. Since I was familiar with the area I set out on my own. I also cut off about 6 miles. Maybe 3 or 4 miles of light drizzle before I made it back to the car. And there was a good deal of tree cover so I didn't really get wet. I wonder what happened to the slackers. Much of the route was on an unpaved, mostly dirt trail. My bike got a little dirty even with the light rain. Maybe 1.5 hrs. after I finished (I was the first in.) it started to pour. Only 3 other people had finished by the time I changed, loaded up the car, hung out for a bit and then finally headed for home.
