Yep.We don't get bad weather that often so when it does arrive I see it as a bit of a challenge.
From my door at home, thru Mt Pleasant, along Como/South Perth PSP and then over to South Perth/Mends St it just rained and rained and rained. No wind or just a breeze so that was OK. Almost no traffi - cars or bikes. HOwever the walkers are obviously a tougher breed as the coffee place at Deep Water Point was doing quite respectable trade around 8am.
On the Narrows it started to clear though the air was a trifle colder. However I saw it coming in again from Nedlands, put the Pancho on again and, as soon as I was in the most exposed place I could be I got the one and only squall. It was a doozy.
So all up several hours riding, with most of it heavy rain or worse.
