Rain


I am glad I decided NOT to bike to work today. This waterfall pouring from the sky would definitely not make cycling fun. Some people don't mind it. I do. Since I bike-commute mainly for fun, I still have a hard time finding it when riding in rain. It is not about the bike, as bikes can be pretty well protected from atmospheric precipitation by fenders, internal gearing hubs, full case chainguards, disc or drum brakes, etc. It is not even about clothing as you can use waterproof pants, jackets, rubber shoes, etc. It is mostly about... the glasses. I wear glasses and in rain they quickly get foggy and wet. I can't see a damn thing.
