47 degrees when I left the house this a.m. in a nice heavy rain. It actually wasn't too cold; rather, I dressed well. Full on raingear. I was fairly dry but for the sweat factor when I got to work. My gear is hanging all over the locker room in as small a space as possible (very few women continue to bike to work in this weather and the locker room is fairly empty this time of year). Deep puddles and slippery bricks were encountered, couldn't avoid some of it and I had a couple front wheel slips on the way in. Must slow down going home as it'll be black as midnight by 4:30 pm. Oh, and pouring down rain again.
