Surprise Storm

My goal in spring, summer and fall is to ride bicycle during lunch hour at work as often as possible. The new schedule calls for bicycling on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. That means bicycle at work on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and then, most often, at the "beach condo" in Milton-Freewater on Fridays and Saturdays. This morning the weather looked promising so I put the bike on top of the car for the first time this season. Halfway to work I started to get blasted with 40 mph winds and then torrential rain. By lunchtime the weather may be much better. For now, I'll be satisfied with getting a good bike wash.
