This week, our efforts have made things extra special.

After a summer with nearly no rain, this week it has rained for nearly three days straight. Our happy recipient of the new fenders is surely enjoying the new experience of commuting to work in the rain without rain shooting up his pants and all over his back!

I have ridden in rain on tours. I sure wouldn't want to take a road bath like that and then face eight or ten hours of working in soaking wet jeans, cotton socks, and tennis shoes. Brrr!

Imagine bicycle commuting for a year or two in all weather - rain and snow and slush. THEN, having fenders for the first time. What a treat that must be! You done good, Aaron!
