I went for my Wednesday afternoon ride as usual, only this time it was in driving rain. Managed to get an hour & a half in until the cold got to much & I had to come home. Stopped for a p one double s but couldn't find my peeny (difficult enough in normal weather), he'd packed up & gone home! Plenty of water running through the gullies & across the trails. The couple of creek crossings became interesting to say the least. It's not as slippery in rain as it is just after rain, doesn't "grease" up. You couldn't see where I'd been (did the same loop 3 times) as the rain washed all the evidence away. Had to switch to safety glasses about half way through as my goggles wouldn't un-fog. Heavy rain & a little bit of speed sure makes your face where it's usually covered by goggles know it's alive. Anyway, had a pretty good ride in the end, beats sitting around looking out the window at the dismal weather, although I reckon it took a good couple of hours to get comfortably warm again.
