I am guessing winds at 60 mph or better with trees coming down around us on 34. I was a very interesting drive home until the other side of Terrell or so.

that storm was a frog choker!

Always good to ride in the rain when it is warm. My rain jacket that performed so well on the df (a cannondale rainshell that seconds as vest since the sleeves zip off) left me fully soaked on the bent. I guess the biggest problem was the zippers on the front of the jacket. I could feel pools of water coming through.

What are all of you using for EFFECTIVE rain gear? John S, I'm sure you have had to deal with some nasty weather, what are you using?
