Global Warming bah.......

Rant Over.
Is there some unwritten rule that states if it's raining you can't have fun on a bike!? I sometiems have more fun in the rain as it really hones your smooth riding skills. Get out there!

Its when its sunny when you get up, you decide to go out, and by the time you get yourself sorted its chucking down again....just enough to get you soaked and to slick the roads back up.....then the sun comes back out....
I know - thats been driving me mad! Got up specially early over the weekend to go for a blast and a flash shower half way through dampened the rest of it
