It's Raining, It's Pouring
We're incredibly fortunate to enjoy such nice biking weather. However, even in sunny Southern California it's bound to rain sometime. With that in mind, we need to remember to keep safety first and and with rain forecast in the recent weather forecast, my advice is; 1) If you look out and see it raining, it's likely the ride is canceled. 2) If rain is forecast, but only cloudy, go to the start and see if the ride is a go. Saturday 1/14/23, the second item above occurred. The sky was cloudy, rain likely within a couple of hours, so we decided to change the route that follows closely to the Gold Line so that in the event of rain, we could bail out and take the Gold Line back to Pasadena. This is a nifty rainy day trick we learned for Stan Schwarz.
We went to the LA Central Market with no issue, but by the time we were done with break, the rain had started. We simply jumped on to the Red Line to the Gold Line then to Pasadena. Our only extended exposure to the rain was from Allen Station to Victory Park.
On other occasions, we decided not to ride, but to go to a local breakfast joint.
So in summary, if it's pouring, stay home, otherwise go to the start and find out what's happening. |
