Default Fooking Spain!

Well being a butch all year round rider it does look like my valour will be curtailed once more tomorrow for the second consecutive saturday!

Rain forecast and it just aint no fun when that happens here as spitting and drizzle definitely do not exist!

So my bike glistening after a wash and polish will only get a 10 minute run to warm her through in the garage.

In the words of Comodus from Gladiator....."I am vexed...terribly vexed"

I mean come on fellas,we get less than 20 days of rain a year,(although up to 25 days if we are having a real wet one!). So with so few,why like, two weekends spoiled by the stuff? Why not stick to Monday to Friday and leave the weekends for play?

Havent you got one of your many ladies friends available to 'entertain' you.

Anyway, if you didnt have a bike that went furry in the rain, you could go out!

I might have other forms of entertainment available Viney but a different type of ride would have suited to pass the morning away at least.

Alas she would be subjected to a substance that would mask her undeniable beauty and I am not willing to put her through such a trauma. Many thanks for your deep concern though.

In addition I leave that wetsuit joy for my buddies back in England as they seem to enjoy the regular experience,no?
