    Your ride is probably over by now - however - be sure to watch braking. Your rims will get wet & braking may be compromised.

    Somebody suggested lowering your tire pressure. This is good for gripping the road but bad because you're more likely to pick up those sticky things that cause flats. In AZ, we don't get a lot of rain so the road edges tend to accumulate lots of flat-makers.
    To train a dog, you must be more interesting than dirt.

    Any non-wool base layer suggestions for cold, damp riding? Sadly I'm allergic to wool/animal fibers. For skiing, I generally stick with Lightweight Polartec, but it doesn't really get wet. Would that work as well as wool?
