Even your regime of cold-water immersion would be hard pressed to prepare you for two hours of drenched misery... I'm so glad to know you made it, the bike made it, and your friends and cat rolled out such a lovely set of welcoming conditions for you! I loved your title and your larger point: doing this and writing about it may be the best way to raise awareness of how much we need to change our habits. Thank you!
This post had me on the seat of my pants...enthralling. What a compelling storyteller you are. We’re you able to get the derailleur back in shape? Glad the weather in SoCal has taken a significant turn for the better.

Thank you so much, Janet!
What a story! Ugh! Glad it had a warm dry ending. (And how ironic that you were riding next to arroyo seco in the pouring rain!)
Indeed, not very seco at all!!
Waita push through!
