SpeedTriple44444 Posted September 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 same here. What do you do for rain gear? I'm using a Nelson Rigg rain suit, Alpinestars boots, over my normal (mostly waterproof) fieldsheer gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirAlienJ Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 Was and gone now. I'll bring a paper towel out with me when I get ready to leave. This will be the best afternoon for a ride in weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevysoldier Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 I rode today. Wasn't raining this morning but did a little bit ago. As long as it isn't raining on the way in to work I ride. Don't care if it rains on the way home. No rain gear except for my somewhat waterproof riding jacket.

tyler524 Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 Rode today (was raining) and do everyday rain or shine. Full leathers for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 I rode, but I'm not sure how much it counts, since it's under 2 miles each way. I have to run home and get the car in a while though, the kids get off the bus here, and I have to take them home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerik Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 The rain was patchy here. I had my mask and a seat-towel in my backpack and didn't need either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyler524 Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 I just walked out to one of our other buildings at work and it is getting pretty damn windy here. I'd rather have rain than 30mph winds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BiggO Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 Had to drop my 2 girls off at school, so I couldn't ride to work today. But I took the Spyder with the top down, and no it was not raining yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got 32 in the morning, that somehow turns into closer to 50 on the way home... I'm sure you know how that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpeedTriple44444 Posted September 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 So, the V-strom is out in the parking lot at work getting power washed right now. I hope this eases up before it's time to leave!How many of you rode in today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoTGoD Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 So, the V-strom is out in the parking lot at work getting power washed right now. I hope this eases up before it's time to leave!How many of you rode in today?I only live about 1.5 miles from work, and no way my Speedy is sitting out in the rain! There is a VStar in the parking lot, but that guy sold his truck and that's all he has to ride until he finds something new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scruit Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 (edited) I skipped today for a few reasons. Have to turn in a rental car in on the way home from work. Had to put my kid on the school bus so I only had 25 mins to get to work and I can only get that that quickly on 270 which I don't like to ride on. Also, because it was raining pretty heavily when it was time to set off. I need more time/experience riding in the rain at a lesiurely pace before I will feel confident trying to make good time when I'm in a rush.

I don't mind the rain so much, as long as I'm not in a rush. Snow and ice = no thanks. Unless I'm riding a trike or a Can-Am or something that won't tip over when you hit the slick stuff.
