Hey Hardy Randonneurs.
I was driving up to my road race in Cowichan yesterday on the Malahat and kept seeing touring cyclists headed South (opposite to me). I wondered what was going on, and then remembered: Eau de Hell week!
Man the rain was slashing down sideways and it was difficult enough for me to finish my Masters road race (which I won

). I can't imagine doing a 200km brevet or whatever it was you were doing on Sunday.
Major kudos to the randos and I'm hoping for excellent weather for you guys today. Doesn't look too bad so far!
