Started out on a nice ride today, and got caught in rain! It was my first time in the rain, so it threw me off a bit. I rode for awhile, till sweat was mixing with rain and getting in my eyes, so I pulled over at our little airport here to wait it out. While I was out there waiting a man came out and said 'it caught ya huh?'...lol. I looked like a drowned rat! Then he asked where I was going and seemed surprised that I was just out riding for the sheer joy of riding. He said 'well, if you need a break I've got donuts and coffee inside'...I said thanks and waited it out! Very nice man!
In the meantime my hubby was scared...I called and he'd left to look for me, and hadn't taken a cell phone with him! So my son let him know that I called and was ok. Figures that today of all days I don't go my normal route, but I'm off looking for new places to ride and he comes looking for me! He said there were a ton of cyclists out on my normal route though, pedaling away in the rain! LOL. They must have thought he was crazy that he slowed down at each cyclist trying to see if it was me or not.
Only got 12.6 in thoughI was soaked and freezing, so I figured it was better to head home than catch pnuemonia again (had it in April) even though I really wanted to keep riding!
Hope everyone is doing well!
