Rule 9:If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
Dragged my body out of bed, listening to the sound of rain drumming down outside. Clambered into vaguely suitable - but still muddy and slightly damp - clothes, found a working bike.
Light on. Met up with friend from across the road and headed off into the wet slithery darkness.
That is what it's all about (*). Who else was out this morning in the rain?
(*) See also rule 4 though.
