WOO-HOO-- 80% chance of rain and I'm riding the bike
I can't wait
 My wife's jeep had to be dropped off at the shop and since she's starting 3 hours later than me, I'll be riding the cycle to work tomorrow and she'll have my Suburban. 80% chance of precipitation , with rainfall totals around 1/2", it'll be a blast  I put fresh Rain-X on my helmet shield. I found out my rainjacket fits over my Teknic leather jacket so I can be "armored" too. I'll be wearing my Tourmaster pants and I'll find out if my Alpinestar MX-4 boots are really waterproof. My olympia cold weather gloves are supposed to waterproof. Only 17 miles one way in 50 degree weather too  I kind of wish my fairing was bigger right about now  Jeff |

I'll be happy if I don't hit any deer. They were all over this morning, just standing in the rain.

It's really not that bad.... just gotta watch out for all the idiots out on the road that forget how to drive (not like they ever knew in the first place) when a few drops of water hit the ground

Sounds like me yesterday. My Jeep was in the shop, rode the bike in the rain.
