oh yes it was raining but who turned on the firehoses? I really should not have gone out in it but it was not bad when I started. Not until about 6 miles out on my 10+ mile commute did it start to rain so hard I truly could not see. That lasted all the way into campus. Glad I put on extra layers today. 61 deg/rain will tend to cool you off. Booties on feet did not work as well as expected my feet were very wet on arrival. will have to try the plastic bag trick on my feet next time. Otherwise it was fun. Light explosions on my Dinotte 400L when rain drops would score direct hits on the lamp. Interesting. Raindrops as rainbows in my helmet light's path. Very pretty. Only downside was not being able to see the pot holes. Glad I don't have a fancy bike as I am sure I did it no good today. Was so much fun I get to do it on the ride home today!
