We’re experiencing some bucketing rain at the moment. We certainly need it to boost our state’s water supplies so I can’t complain.
After cycling through some fairly heavy showers on the way to the radio station this morning I was thinking about how good it was that the rain is starting to fill up the dams. However, I wasn’t quite so thrilled that it had already filled my shoes.
As I look out the window I notice that the winds are getting wilder. I’m faced with the fact that in around an hour and a half I’ll have to slip into my soggy cycling clothes and shoes and battle the elements to get home. Mind you – it beats driving a car any day.

Hi ROdney – I am Thomas’ wife and I thought I’d have a look at what he reads during the day.
Incidently, the rain is a good thing, and also, that you live in WA where it doesn’t rain nearly as much as what it does over here in sunny (?) Victoria.
I have read a few of your posts and I am liking it. Good Job.
Hey Rodney, meet my wife, wifey, Rodney. And how are the footy tips going? We (Olivia and I) are on 63. I’m even going to a game for my birthday next week!
Sorry, I forgot, this is not my blog it’s yours. Speak to you later…
Hey, what are you doing writing blogs while you’re on air buddy!!! As for the wet weather fashion statement with the soaking wet cycling gear, I can confirm that it’s true, coz I was here and saw the evidence, and, I also resemble that remark, after riding from home to the automatic transmission place in torrential rain to pick my car up a few weeks ago. The term “drowned rat” comes to mind when I think about it.
Just an FYI; looking at http://www.watercorporation.com.au/water/dams_storage.cfm it seems we’re looking good this year. I imagine it would be a simple think to rig up a monitor to your shoes to produce similar stats for The Journey. Eh?
