Stijn!!

It sucks because if I take my bike to class as usual I get spray all over me even if it is not raining. And I need to safely store my glasses while riding since they will be way wet and dirty upon arrival and I would have no dry, clean shirt to clean them with either. If I walk, then it takes me 3 times as long to get to class and walking = no fun. Then I get back home and am soaked so have to change clothes. But during the day I need to sitting in class all wet.

run really fast.

That doesn't look so graceful with a backpack on, and didn't Mythbusters bust that myth? Although the convertible did stay drier at higher speed.

Walking is good exercise

Rain and long periods of clouds are the reason I would not want to live in Washington year-round.

I get plenty of exercise on my bike. Cal Poly is built on a hill.

If I had a girlfriend that liked walking, I would walk, though. I would not give up riding, but I would do all three. (yes, three)

Go to eastern Washington then, it is the complete opposite.

Do they have the volcanoes and rivers and ocean and greenery there?

Ain't you own a rain jacket Max?

[Flieger]

I got something that is not permeable to water, but my shorts, shoes, socks, and backpack still get wet.

[Flieger]

I tried looking for something like those little booties that are worn in clean rooms around shoes, but in a tougher, waterproof material so that my feet do not need to be in wet socks and shoes all day, but I can't find anything that fits my needs.

[Noah930]

Why don't you get shorts, shoes, socks and backpack made out of the same material, then?

[Flieger]

Uh, that is more expensive, and I haven't exactly seen those items.

[Porsche-poor]

later guys. Time to fix dinner.

Post # 45625 would have been funnier had it followed #45623 directly, instead of being interrupted by #45624.

Eastern Washington (admittedly I've never been), if it's anything like Eastern Oregon (where I have visited), is quite dry. Like San Joaquin Valley dry.

I like it just fine where I am at. Australia was pretty nice, though. A lot like the climate/weather here. New Zealand's winter was a bit wet, but made everything green.

Yeah it is dry, I saw my first live tumble weed there
