We return this week to a perennial topic, popular because it is pervasive: riding in the rain. This edition, Armando brings the bike love and a pizza to the discussion about wet, gear, and drying out. Also Aaron takes a field trip to a pumpkin patch and Guthrie tries out apple cider donuts.

As always, thanks to our drink sponsor The Beer Mongers & our generous Patreon donors.
