Not worth mentioning. It was basically 22 miles of easy riding on very wet roads and rain. Sometimes the rain was hard enough to make it hard to see.

Build Endurance

Ride Description:

I knew this ride would be at risk of storms, but I tried anyway. About mile 12 it started raining on me and the sky was getting darker. I stopped at the church and saw Ron putting away his table and he told me a storm was headed our way. Based on the radar it looked like I would have just enough time to get back before it hit. When I got back the sun was out, but the storm was still shown on the radar as coming.
