I thought I could beat the rain home yesterday - WRONG!
It poured but I loved every minute of it. I did learn a few things though:
- the roads here do not drain very well. I had to ride in the center of the lane most of the time to avoid large puddles.
- You can not hear your cellphone ring in the rain. Also, a wet cellphone is a bad thing

I think mine is dead.
- My back pack does a great job with water - it held it in quite well
- The ride home was one of the more enjoyable rides I've had.
