Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.

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!
>:(
and here i thought that multi-riders where all about getting out on the road, damn the weather....... [roll]

I don't mind rain.... but.....

The storms we have been getting are so treacherous.  Visibilty down to a few feet with major flooding of the roads within minutes.  Not to mention the scary lightning.  Just to dangerous for a bike.  I have not seen such a wet summer in years.

So, it's been the wettest, and the hottest summer in years. Basically ever since I got here, you've had extremes. I'm REALLY not looking forward to my first winter here...

;D  Winters can go either way.  Mild or wild.  Either way... you won't be riding.  Unless your name begins with a Q.  Crazy French guy!

So, you don't think it's a good idea to put nobbies on the S2R1K?

It's... annoying. Yeah, that's it. I think I'm starting to grow mushrooms, I've been damp so long.

Hi from California!


We don't even check the weather report when we schedule out group rides  :P

If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.
