Nearly Normal

It was cold and raining most of the night, continuing into the morning, so any thoughts of getting out on the road were completely washed away well before sunrise. It's always a little bit strange for me when I miss my morning training ride - even stranger when The Wife gets picked up for an early meeting and I have the car too. It means that I can pretend to be nearly normal, which means wearing nicer clothes, driving to work with one of those bug insulated cups of coffee, and not arriving with windblown hair that looks like it's seen better days. It's still cloudy and misty around here but if the forecast holds true it will gradually clear and give us a few days of fine weather. Guess I should go register for Rouge-Roubaix.
