In the early 1990s we spent nearly a month touring Ireland by bicycle. 
It was the wettest experience of my life.

Also, in the early 2000s, we rode coast to coast, Atlantic to Pacific. 
For the first two weeks it rained on us every day.

It sort of puzzles me that most people find rain so uncomfortable. It's 
as if we evolved on a planet where rain didn't happen.
