Caught the rust just in time!
Riding in the rain is never advised.
Sometimes it happens though and you have no choice.
The chain started showing surface rust.
Took some kerosene and removed it.
I thought about this for a little bit.
I decided I better lube all parts I can.
So I cleaned what I could and lubed up the cables and the chain.
Hopefully next time I go for a ride I won't have any unusual noise.

the doubter, hater, denier with whom the poem's protagonist is speaking is all wet. "You thought I'd drive..." That person. That you.
Is that a real person or is that a part of the speaker's self with whom he is having an inner dialogue? Maybe its John Kass or maybe its the protagonist's mother. Hmm.

Well, I'm still wondering who is wet?
I also thought this was an intentionally bad poem posted. Riding in the rain is never advised? Wha....???

riding in the rain
ain't so bad
as long as it's when you leave
and not where you began
Well it was a bad day and I decided to write about it.
After the storms let up I continued home.
I went into a parking lot only to find it flooded.
I figured it can't be that bad and rode through it.
The water came up to the middle of my cranks.
Next area that was flooded I carried my bike overhead.
So I'm hoping all is okay.

I check Accuweather when I wake up,
And confirm today's forecast,
Along with a few hours ahead.
Heck, it shows rain is coming up,
And affirm I have my raincoat,
Along with helmet for my head.
