wet, cool, windy, and GREAT! I did my first grocery run on the way home tonight, and still the commute time was less than 40 minutes. Groceries totaled over 25 lbs, so not that much, but they were with me for 8 miles of the 10.25 mile trip. Felt good to be stocking up the bike ready for a rain ride home when people were scrambling to get to their cars. Packed everything into my panniers and my trunk bag, lined with plastic bags, and everything was bone dry when I got home.
