Yeah but not as enjoyable, i cant stand the constant wiping of the visor and lack of vision, the decreased grip, shall i go on ;)

Anybody who says they like riding in the rain, lies :)

Oh you mean the finer control you need and ability to use the grip that is available, now I find that great fun, after all it's a skill I practise a lot and something I pride myself on, shall I go on.......;)

I'm aiming to set off really early (sunrise 4.45) and make a days riding of it, come rain or shine, it's riding and I enjoy that, from a 183 mile direct route, I'll make it about 350-400, to be honest the ride down has become an indulgent treat for me for the last few years.

Cheers Mark.

I enjoy riding in the rain for those reasons too. The only thing I openly dislike is that it dirties the bike, but you can't have it all ways :D
