    Riding in the rain

    I had my favorite riding conditions this morning. Low 70s, misty rain. It felt wonderful!

    I love misty rain, but I can't ride in it because of my glasses. But it sounds devine!

    I can ride in the rain, but like Tulip, because of glasses, I don't enjoy it.

    Last year on the Ride Across Indiana, the heavens opened 5 minutes before the start. Thunder, Lightning, POURING RAIN. It rained for the first 70 miles of the 160 mile ride.

    BECAUSE of my glasses, I pushed hard to keep the rooster tails of water from 1,000 riders out of my face.

    But, half way into the eight hour trek, when the sun came out, we stayed cool (and very, very waterlogged)
