Riding in the rain
Nothing like a 35 mile commute from work in an afternoon thunder storm in Texas. All I can say "Better than being in a truck."

I have been caught a few times in the rain and do not like it at all. At times like that I'd rather be in my truck.

It's OK... as long as you don't hide under an overpass. J/K

No worries it's been proven that Harleys do not melt in the rain.

I enjoy all of the crazy looks I get from the cagers as I pass them in the pouring down rain.

I don't mind riding in the rain, I just try to remember my 3/4 or full helmet instead of my 1/2 and goggles.
