Looks Like a Rain YearToday is January 10 and the month-to-date precipitation is 4.00". The average for the first ten days in January is 1.71" and last year we had only 0.60". And the forecast for the rest of the week through Sunday is Rain!. Perhaps it is the rain that has allowed me to catch a cold. I have been ill for two weeks now. I took two days off of work last week but felt good enough to ride on Saturday and Sunday, but the cold came back and I took most of today off. I feel better after several hours sleeping this afternoon, so I think I can make it into work tomorrow. The question is can I ride tomorrow night? It is a slow paced ride but the weather (think rain) may cause me to skip it. We will see.
