Depending on what you use for chamois cream, maybe keep a sample package in your seatbag? But you're right, 13 is better than 0!
They're still giving us a 20% chance of rain tomorrow. Hopefully it restricts itself to the afternoon! I've got a somewhat shorter "recovery" ride (15-20) planned for tomorrow, since I'm a little sore. This year's wet weather, combined with moving, means I got a late start. Of course, I'm doing better than last year mileage-wise, but I'm not really consistent.
For some reason I had my smaller Camelbak with me, my normal one has all kinds of things in it, including a couple of small sample packages...Just another lesson to use the same one all of the time even if I don't really don't need the larger reservoir! Too many other things get forgotten.

Enjoy your ride tomorrow, I am going to check out a different route that goes into a county west of me rather than north. I've been a little nervous about my country roads since the dog attack and it is time to get over that. I think new roads will help with that and I am looking forward to exploring the new route tomorrow! Picking up some friends at the airport around midnight tonight, so I doubt I will get an early start tomorrow...
