Default Friggin Rain

Thought I'd finally get out yesterday, been raining everyday for the last 5.
Cranked it up and got 5 miles down the road, sure enough rain building every direction. I managed a 40 mile ride, a big loop country roads, before getting it back in the shop. Wouldn't ya know, rain hit 20 minutes l8r. Wake up this morning and it's still raining, damn it, man!

Been pretty good in South Fl this summer, really not much rain at all, it builds but a brief shower and then it's gone. Watch it rain all weekend now I've said that!

Supposed to rain all weekend here in Tampa Bay. I was thinking of a ride either up to Cedar Key or Ocala National Forest but now it looks like I'm going to have to hang at home.

Cool

And when does this "rainy season" finish, or does it just have a mind of it's own?
I was going to come over and see you lot the next week, but if it's gonna carry on, I don't think I'll bother!!
