Wetbike weather

Almost seven inches of rain so far this week. Nice thing about a bicycle is that its a little tougher to flood the engine. I hope...

The street outside our house at eight this morning.

I'm hearing there is a new flood bike in the works. Similar to the "snow bike," but with MUCH fatter tires!

I've heard the same thing. They're calling it a Chitty-Chitty Bike Bike.

Odd thing about it is how WARM the running water seems when you are riding compared to the rain itself.

All kidding aside, I suspect fat tires (for hitting the occasional submerged pothole), full fenders (to avoid being drenched), and disk brakes (so one's braking surfaces are not submerged) would be ideal for last week's weather.
