It took me most of a rainy winter to pin down a good rain-riding routine, and there were several instances of soaked shoes, jeans, and (in one memorable instance) a heavy corduroy jacket, before I got it all worked out.<br /><br />Funny thing was, I never caught cold, unlike while riding crowded buses in similar weather.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13943854290539335426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1467641373635679660.post-41643213706323817472010-09-24T18:07:40.742+01:002010-09-24T18:07:40.742+01:00No!

I think you've just coined a new nome de plume - looking forward to hearing of more of her rain-sodden adventures soon!:o)<br /><br />PS You know there's no shame in *not* cycling in the rain, right? Only say that as it took me a while to realise that riding a bike is not something to be endured at all costs. Sometimes, just sometimes, when it's snowing out there, I quite like going on the bus!ibikelondonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06978714126105951294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1467641373635679660.post-3222724293803202342010-09-24T12:50:03.027+01:002010-09-24T12:50:03.027+01:00Ah - totally sympathise.

My usual thing is doing the opposite e.g. This morning - wore extra layers + waterproofs then sweltered in nice clear weather while sensible people sauntered by in T-Shirts!KarmaCyclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15884964466372798027noreply@blogger.com
