Anticipated a rainy ride home yesterday, so I wanted to take one of my fendered bikes. There was a possibility I'd have to rendez Vous with my wife and drive her home so it would be one of the two folding bikes I had just spent the day before updating the brake levers, shifter and cabling on the 16" Dahon Getaway but decided on the 20" Dahon Boardwalk since it also has a rack.

It was a beautiful, cool crisp almost sunny ride in to the office. I took the shortest route...5.8 miles on smaller streets through downtown.

It began raining after 10am and on through the afternoon. The appointment never materialized and I got ready to leave at 5p. Before changing into my bike clothes I poked my head outside and it was raining. I unpacked my rain poncho/cape, bagged my backpack and phone and headed outside...

,,,it had stopped raining.

I rode halfway home in my rain gear just in case, but then took it off, but kept it outside the backpack for quick access.

But by the time I rolled up my driveway it was sunny with birds chirping.
