Watch the painted pavement markings. They get slick when they are wet!

I'm sure your home by now, so no sense in giving advice so I'll share my last two days in the rain.
Yesterday morning woke up and it was pouring, my rain gear was at work from last time it rained and I wore it there and didn't want to wear it home (look at my bike, no storage to take it home) so I got SOAKED on my way to work. By the time I was done working it was nice and sunny and I took a back pack so I figured I'd take my gear home. Woke up today and it was nice,getting ready to leave work and it's pouring, rainsuits at home! Never fails. Oh and with no front fender I get a nice rooster tail right between the eyes.
