I think I should have invested in a canoe instead of a motorcycle...

I WANT TO RIDE!
*stomps feet in child-like tantrum fashion*

I am *this close* to pulling out the credit card and buying some wet weather gear.

But if you all want someone to blame, go ahead and blame me. Get my damn endorsement on the 20th, and we've had a grand total of like 3 sunny days since.  [bang]

Is anyone else in a crazed suicidal state because of all this gray weather?

Bah.

Rain gear or not, just go ride!  You'll get wet anyway.

Just go extra carefully and ride extra smooth!

Thats the best idea I've heard all year!  [thumbsup]

Guess what?  It's raining.............again................oh wait, it never stopped!       [bang]

I think I'm going to design an ark.     :'( 

If it rains next Thursday for the Fishtail track day I will have a break down!

Dont know what the big deal is its just a little rain I riding back and forth to work everyday still.  I know its not ideal but nothing is ever ideal grab a rain jacket and some rain pants and go ride.  Or you can do the expensive thing and move to san diego .

twisty back roads are not as fun in the rain. neither is commuting, but if you gotta get to work, you do it anyway
If you drive the nicest car in the neighborhood, work in a cash business, and don't pay taxes, you're either a preacher or a drug dealer...

The big deal is, I've had my moto license since the 20th of July. I've practiced in industrial parks only a handful of times. I have yet to venture out into traffic. My boy does not ride in the wet... at all. I would rather not have my maiden voyage on the street be a solo endeavor. Therefore, I have to wait until the boy is good and ready to take his bike back out. Also, the boy is my mechanic and frowns on rusty/nasty bearings and things of the sort caused by all of this delightful weather. I say lube 'er up and ride. He says nay. The entire second day of my MSF class, skills evaluation included, took place in the rain. I wasn't bothered a bit, minus a little bit of swamp ass.

Bah!
