How do you suppose that happened? Were you able to use gears that are high enough?

I don't ride that much in the rain. I rarely head out to work if it's raining, though I take a chance on a rainy PM commute. This morning, I thought it would be a gentle mist. Oops. But I was OK. And the rain had abated well before I got there, so I looked presentable.
