30 miles in the rain. Started riding just before sunrise and the rain began about 2 miles into it. I debated turning around, going home, and doing Spinervals ABB 5, but the thought of 2 hours and 10 minutes on the trainer was less appealing than riding in the rain. Actually, I like riding in the rain because the trail is usually deserted. Not even the bunnies were braving it today. Luckily, no thunder/lightning and no downpours (got stuck in one of those last Monday). As I was heading home, I went down a descent on the trail that passes beneath a roadway--abuts a stream--it was FLOODED. Luckily I was able to stop and unclip, turn around and head back up the way I came. You can bypass that segment by crossing the road under which the descent passes Didn't encounter any more flooding the rest of the way home, although I was soaking wet and my back was filthy. Even had sandy grit on my neck. My ruby slippers are soaked, too.
