My god it's a miracle - it has actually stopped raining ...at least for the moment! I was beginning think about buying a boat Of course, the roads are a mess up here in the mountains with mud and debris all over plus the asphalt is all torn up in places so riding is certainly an adventure. But at least it isn't raining so I'll be off to try out my new Speedplay Zero pedals. I'll let you know if I unclip with dignity when I have to stop...
