Well, when the rain was at its heaviest cycling would've been... interesting given how hard the rain was coming down and the amount of rain which fell in such a short time.
I'd agree with the cycling instead of driving into the center of Camb - it doesn't make that much sense if you're on your own. However most of the time if I meet E-J in town for lunch on her days off then we'll drive in as its easier all round and the car parks aren't that busy on a weekday.
I tend to avoid the sticky trouser effect by also wearing shorts; however they are a pair of Rohan convertables (i.e. long trousers which can convert into shorts) which means that I can wear shorts whilst cycling and wear long trousers in the office so that I don't get frozen by the A/C we've got (worse in some of the machine/patch rooms where the temperature can be 18°C with little humidity).
