Stupid radar is lying - no ride today
Brought my road bike to work with me today, had planned to ride during lunch. I woke up this morning to a surprise rain shower, but it was very isolated and the forecast said partly cloudy later today. But right now it's raining outside, and the radar (both Weather Channel and local NBC news affiliate) both show NOTHING in the area. I'm not equipped to ride in the rain and really don't want to do it on the road bike anyway. Sucks. 
I have ridden in rain before on my KHS but didn't enjoy it very much. It doesn't have fenders.
