Were you out in it?
I was ... my f*ck! I might as well have jumped in the River Meon! (my local river) ... everything was wringing wet, including all the things I'd put in a plastic bag in the middle of my backpack to stop them from getting wet.
I took off my waterproofs because they were actually making things worse.
At one point I had to go at 10 mph downhill with the anchors on because I actually couldn't see.
Lucky I was coming home from an evening ride and not going out ...
According to the news this morning, that particular rainstorm brought as much rain in an hour as we normally see in a month ... and I was in it!
