On-duty cops, helmet laws, and excessive stop lights...i can deal with the weather, cagers, and such.

Also, when the ride is in the shop. That just plain sucks, especially when the temps are finally in 70+ degrees, no wind, sunny and three day weekend.
Grrrrr.

I call getting soaked in the rain or getting blasted by a passing semi-truck with slush "Bragging Rights!"

After all, you gotta have some stories to tell the grandkids one day...
