We've just had about 30 seconds worth of bilblical flood type rain, and now the skies are blue again.

Just got one up on the boss as well All day the rain has been on/off like this, and he's been making quips about it. Then one of the lads said he probably hadn't brought his umbrella. He agreed. So I explained that come home time, I'll just stick my waterproofs on & walk. I offered to bring his car around to the office for him too "the long way" (since I'm leaving 30mins before him). He declined.

Hose pipe? The summer ended a couple of months back. Did you not get the memo?

Talking Re: Will It Ever Stop Raining!!!!!??????

Huh! Call yerselves bikers! I used to tour Scotland in March on a 125 in shirt sleeves and ankle socks yer bunch o'wimps!!
You'll all be buying Triumph Trophys next with heated seats!

The only thing which puts me off riding in the rain is being able to see through my visor at night. Darkness and rain don't mix too well on two wheels I find but I have yet to try, erm, whats it called now, erm, ahhh....Nikwax Visor Proof....its supposed to act like RainX does on car windscreens so helps the rain to run off instead of sticking and blurring your vision. About a fiver a bottle should last for years! Best time to try it I guess with all this rain around! I'll buy some tomorrow and let you all know the outcome!

Who said I minded riding in it?

Oh yea, save your fiver, and use White vinegar instead. 25,000miles this year, in all weathers, and white vinegar hasn't let me down yet!!
