At least I was one of two bikes on the road on International Female Ride Day (it was raining).  Although I think the other one was a guy on a BMW. :-\

Didn't see one other bike on the road this morning. Kinda dissappointing.

How do you even ride in the scorching heat and humidity there on any given day?

If only I could strap multiple hundreds of pounds worth of tools and parts to the Beemer :).  I've been pegged as nothing more than a weekend warrior, but when the company gives me a work van I don't have much choice :)
