Riding the Storm Out

[tommymck]

I am pretty much a fair weather rider too, but in Florida, getting caught in rainstorms is difficult to avoid completely.

My approach is to embrace the fact that I am going to get soaked and there is nothing I can do about it. Once you accept it, it is not so bad. At least in a warm Florida rain. A northern cold rain might be a different story.

I rarely wear rain gear since it is too warm.

I am usually on my way home when I get wet since I do not head out in the rain. So, there is a warm shower and dry cloths at the end of the ride.

Bring a bar of soap and you could save a lot of time and on your water bill!

I live in Anne Arundel County on the beautiful Chesapeake Bay. Nothing but wells around here. No water bills....
