I got wet yesterday and I may get wet today. Good rain gear makes the difference. The little booties work well too.

A little bootie/booty always works well for me.

I dont think that when you walk out your door you are experiencing the global weather.
Believe it or not their are other places with different weather.

77 in Chicago right now.
After this winter, my metabolism is still set for cold. 77 feels too hot...in about a month, I'm gonna melt.

Perfect riding temps here most of the time.

But "climate change" has given us a few days in the summer where it's just too hot for my spoiled self.

In Texas, same temps are called Spring.
