DH and I have a regular 25mile loop from our home that takes us into farm country. It's a beautiful ride.
We approach a turn - it frames a corn field.
I turn to DH and say "I can't recall the last time re rode past w/out that sprinkler running."
"heh, yep! it seems to always be on," he replies.
As we start to make our turn - I realize just how close the sprinkler is to the road. Along with wet pavement. And wind blowing the water vapor onto the road.
I realize we're gonna get moist. Again, he agrees.
We round the corner. "Be careful on the wet pavement!" he shouts over his soulder, then gets out of his saddle & starts to rush toward dry pavement. Why is he pushing so hard on slick pavement?
"I wil-" *kshhhh!*kshhhhh!*kshhhhh!*
Moist nothin! That sprinkler was actually hitting the road, and I took three full blasts frontside. :eek: COLD.
There isn't a sports bra in the world that could have hidden how cold I was.
DH was laughing & staring so hard he nearly fell over.
