I may give it a try anyway. I need the climbing.

Bill just said he has nothing to prove by riding in that weather and is quite happy to stay home. I'm piling up all the bike parts he's been collecting that need to be put on bikes in hopes he'll do something with them. I can barely find the kitchen floor any longer. I might pile them on his side of the bed. Naw, he'll just move them to the floor.

That's thing about goals - sometimes they make you do things you're not so thrilled about doing.
Enjoy getting your kitchen back.

I'll probably do a couple of circuits of the Alameda Creek Trail & Coyote Hills, unless it's thundershowering.

You need about 50 miles tomorrow, right? You can do it! Riding in the rain isn't so bad if you have a warm place to end up. And it could be worse... you could be pulling a trailer!
Neither of my bikes currently have fenders, so I'll end up soaked. It's too late to try to get them onto Fluffy tonight. And I'm holding out for carbon fiber ones for Honu.
It's not like there will be paceline on the mountain tomorrow.

Each circuit is about 28 miles, so yep, that's the plan

Hopefully the weather will cooperate. I tried to do my part by not switching my mountain bike tires. After all, if I switched them to slicks, that would practically guarantee a torrential downpour. I haven't washed my cars either. So all in all, we have a shot at nice weather today.
Veronica, did you end up riding up (and down) Mt. Diablo today?
