Rain

[m.eliza]

I believe most of the Pavillion is covered, if not all of it. Hopefully you'll get a seat far enough away from the edges to avoid the bitter winds.

In other news, I heard Sunday is supposed to be just "mostly cloudy," but until then, this is what my life has become...



Sigh...

This weather has been the pits! It has been much harder to get the motivation to go out and run lately b/c it's gray and depressing and cold rain is just icky--some sunshine would be much appreciated. I just hope we have a nice day next Saturday because moving in the rain would really stink...

Although Sunday presented us with a day of "gray" it did NOT present us with rain Another friend and I rode to Pinkham Notch yesterday, and on the way back down to Gorham the clouds lifted to bright blue sky and tremendous views!! I was so excited!! Had a great view of Mt Washington and the surrounding peaks, which was a special treat. I only wish that I had not left the camera in the car

Although today it's back on the trainer...

We'll be up this weekend (Thurs through Tues) and are hoping for good weather to be able to do our annual Jefferson Notch ride on Friday! We start in Gorham, up Rte 2, over Jefferson, down Crawford, over Bear, back on West Side, and over Pinkham to finish. Let's cross our fingers for clear skies and moderate temps!

Last week we had cruddy weather, but I vowed to bike at least to the bus daily. I managed. Once on the bike it didn't seem as bad as it was when looking out the window. This week is really cruddy. It's hot and humid right now with thunderstorms predicted for later. I'm okay with rain, okay with cold and hot, but I'm not okay with thunderstorms for a 28 mile commute.

One thing I've found about riding in the rain is that it's best not to overdress. I wear a lycra undershirt (long sleeves), regular jersey on top, very light (not waterproof) windbreaker over that. Keeps the water out fairly well and breathes. I don't wear raingear because I end up wetter inside from sweating. Bleh!

Yeah, the weather is cruddy and discouraging. But give it a shot - at least a few miles, and see how you feel.

Just got back from a short ride; probably only my 3d one since March where i could wear short sleeves and shorts, with no other gear. Actually, I could have worn sleeveless, as it felt tropical. Yesterday it was 53 and raw on my errand ride and today 73 and 55% humidity. I don't do well with that kind of temperature change in such a short time, so i changed my route to include the shadiest streets I could think of!
Last ride here for a week as we are leaving for San Diego tomorrow. Hoping the June gloom doesn't get too bad there (cool foggy, cloudy weather, esp. by the shore). We signed up for a casual bike tour. They actually drive you up an 850 ft. climb and you ride down and then go all over La Jolla and PB. We are going to see if they will let us ride up the climb . They give you hybrids for this tour, but the place also rents road bikes. We might do that another day, but I'm a bit nervous that their smallest size won't be small enough. And besides, I am supposedly going on this trip to see my son and my dad...
