Hear, hear.

Living in Eugene, we went about a year without a vehicle at all. That winter cured me of fairweatheritis for good. That and a good set of rain gear. =) With all that, I really actually enjoy biking in rain- the harder the better as long as my eyes are protected (Hate, Hate, Hate rain melting my hair gel and making my eyes sting!)

...and afterwords, my bike gets well-dried and re-lubed with love.
