 Today I was itching to get out for a long slow ride before I start again with 2 a days tomorrow.  The  weather had other ideas.  Throughout the morning there was a very light mist and after lunch there was little to no rain with the occasional sun break.  So, I donned my gear and took off optimistic for a good ride.  It immediately started to rain, but not to hard.  Just enough to inhibit my vision through my glasses.   After about 10 minutes the rain picked up and I was soaking wet.  But I was reminded of last weeks Tour of California where the pros were subjected to hard driving rain, steady 25-30mph head winds, and freezing temps.  So I drove on, convincing myself how its not that bad.  About 20 minutes later and I realized those guys get paid pretty good money to ride all day in the rain and all I get is to get to change out my brake pads sooner and probably a cold.  So I decided to head back and hit the Spinning bike.
