    Anonymous pony-tailed rider, you are my HERO!

    I don't know if you folks heard, but we're getting quite the precip lately in Seattle- to the point that there are RECORD amounts of flooding. As in 50+ years of record!

    So, sitting in my vanpool commute group yesterday during the deluge, I spotted a lone, pony-tailed rider pedaling VERY carefully along the bike trail.

    Now THAT is dedication. 6 inches of rain in one day, and she's still riding home from work, in the dark no less.

    Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin

    Pshaw, t'aint nuthin. After the first 3 minutes this morning (and Tuesday ... Monday ... Friday ... Thursday) I was so soaked that who cares about the rain - it's fun!

    Rain!

    Yea! I know what you're saying about the rain! We aren't getting the record flooding over here on the dry side, but . . . the darn rain keeps turning into slush. I'm not brave enough to ride in that! bikerHen
