Did it!!!

More stories!!! Woke up at 4:30 to horrific thunder and rain. Which never stopped. According to Weather Channel, it wouldn't stop until around noon (Atlanta, GA if you're here.) I know it was crazy to think about riding, but I was up... Loaded up my newly-designated rain bike in the car, after swapping saddle and pedals from my new CF baby. On the drive to the ride, it was raining so hard I could barely see on the freeway. My BF called, called me insane, told me to go home and back to bed. Well, I was on the way, bike was loaded, I was dressed, so I figured I would go, give them my donations, get my tee-shirt and go home. Pulled into the park, and there were HUNDREDS of bikers, all gearing up in their rain gear. Well, if THEY were gonna ride, how could I not ride too? So, suited up and went for it! Within a mile, I was soaked through - water sloshing in my shoes, drops dripping off my nose, soaked! It rained for two hours of the ride, but I did it! THis time, with LOTS of people to ride with. Good support, sag's checking all the route, police at intersections, rest stops every 7-10 miles - THIS is what an organized ride should be!!!

I hope everyone else had good rides!!! Mine was wet, but fun!
