Sunday weather prediction was a pause in the rain storms we've been having in Portlandia, so @Andy_K and I planned for a 10am departure on a 42 mile ride. Within minutes we discovered that the weather prediction was wrong. Around 15 miles out we decided to cut the ride short. 27 miles were done, almost all in messy rain. There was a lot of crap on the road. Andy had a flat about 8 miles from my house, and noted that my backside looked like chunks of mud were ready to fall off.


Rode hard, put away wet

Andy, of course, rode a bike with fenders. For some reason I can't seem to follow my own advice.
