I left the office at 2:30 and it started to rain just as I walked out the door. They were way off with the forecast because I, like you, thought that the rain was going to start later in the evening.Quote:

I know how you feel. The 4 years I've been commuting, I've biked all through winter. I actually do ok during the coldest part and then it starts to get a little warmer and I go all "I don't wanna". This winter is different, maybe because we have this beautiful little heat wave! Most of February was ABOVE FREEZING and now it's March!Quote:

I know about weather woes. We're supposed to have a 50% chance of rain tonight, so I drove.:(
and I have to decide if want to ride tommorrow or go to my club meeting. It's getting to be more like a marketing presentation, so i'm leaning towards riding , but then i'll miss my buds, as we're supposed to get another storm this weekend
7 running? Forget about icebergs because hell has frozen over!!! :eek:Quote:

My commute today was gorgeous!
The sun was just rising, the air was balmy and smelled so good. All my flowers are blooming and the daffodils were glowing in the diffuse pink sunlight. Birds were going nuts, singing like crazy.
The ride to the bus station was smooth. Very little traffic. Wheeled my bike into her bike locker, chatted with a neighbor who drove there to catch his bus.
The ride home was fairly dark, but again little traffic and balmy cool spring air. My brakes squealed like mad. The pads are old, so I figure it's time for some salmon Kool-Stops. To heck with trying to get the glaze off, I want new pretties!
Yep, gotta love spring commutes! :D
Glad I'm not drinking my coffee right now because I can't stop laughing. :pQuote:

back in the saddle (seat) today!
Note to self: Kenda Kwests don't like wet pavement
Fun, quick ride today! The nice city/parks people even cleaned the sand and rocks off of the bike path I take after last night's rain. They don't always do that, and it gets messy quick.
it had just sprinkled before i got on my bike so the street was wet. It was 50 degrees and light out! wooo!
Spring is springing.
