Same location as HereNT, temp was low 60s. Luckily the first 6 miles of my commute is on a bike path so I don't have too much of a problem with cars. So, it didn't bug me much. 35 and rain is going to be interesting.

First ride in a steady rain and my question about how the backpack would handle lots of water has been answered with the somewhat expected, "Yes, you will need a plastic bag if you don't want that wet."

My commute gear is all non cotton and dries fast so that isn't a problem, but drying the shoes over the monitor is a bit of a pain. And what do I do when I get an LCD panel at work? I think I'll give some rain booties a try, we'll see if this works with an SPD setup .
