A roadie gets up early, as he has for so many Sunday morning rides, and softly slips out of the bedroom so as not to wake his wife.

He dresses quietly in the next room, grabs his helmet and water bottles, and goes out to pump the tires. As the garage door opens he’s confronted by a windswept rain.

He’s ridden before in these conditions. He doesn’t like it, but when it’s Sunday morning he never misses. He ponders the dismal conditions and then retreats to the house to log into Weiyun's regular Forum posting on weather update.

Weiyun's 'within 97% of accuracy' forecast only sounds worse. Gale force winds watch. This is one Sunday when he just can’t make it happen.
As thunder booms in the distance, he slips off his shoes, quietly returns to the bedroom, undresses and slips back into bed.

There he cuddles up to his wife’s back and whispers, “The weather out there is terrible.”

To which she sleepily replies, “Yeah, can you believe my husband went riding in that crap?”

Geoff is trying to be Shakespearian and I have no idea how I got into the script. :roll:

I have heard the joke before, but I thought it was clever that he has put the DHBC spin on it.

You are in the story as you would be the most likely candidate to be on the forum before an early morning ride....and probably late at night too

1. Ride a fixie - easier to clean
2. Go to bed in your lycra
