...and losing. But not by enough to care. This morning's ride ended with a fast descent in a cold rain. At the bottom, Kimba, Dirty Boo, Valley Boy and I all had big grins.

Identical forks here too! Wrapped up about 10:30 just before it got a little heavier. Loved it.

I rode down to my friend's bike shop in OB today and got caught in the peak of the deluge we had here. I've been wearing glasses again for the first time in 20-some years, and I'd forgotten just how much fun it is riding a bike in heavy rain with glasses on!
