Hey, It's Saturday, isn't that the day you Texans bathe anyway?

Some heavy showers but no floods here in London.

I ride in all weathers but just dress accordingly and allow more braking distance in the wet and try to avoid riding in the snow.

I passed my motorcycle test in the snow in 1980.

Well Carlin, I'm kinda pissed about this subject. Last year it was 97 and sunny the whole stinkin month. If I wanted to live in Seattle, I would have moved there. Oh well. Thinking very strongly about buying rain gear.
Hey Now! The weather has actually been pretty decent up here lately. Not that many rainy days, and even a few days in the 80s recently. Yesterday and today have been raining, but even now the sun's out here.

It's been scattered t-storms here all week. Everytime I have time to ride, it pours. Needless to say, I haven't had a chance to ride in a week. It's killing me.

My shift is from 1pm to 9pm. The ride to work was great! I actually noticed this bright yellow thing in the sky. I believe most people call this wonder light, "sun"? Wow! But then...delayed flights (work at DFW Airport), and when they finally started coming in, the damn computers went down! Finally got out of there at 11:45 tonight. Rode home in wet roads and mist, with thunder and lightning in the southeast. I was headed a little southwest, so I missed the deluge. Not a miserable ride home, though.

We had another 4 inches last night.

I think we are up to around 14 or so inches for the past few days, and it's suppose to keep raining for another 2 days.

Crazy.. [8D]

I wish it were that easy here. I can't think of the last time it was either completely wet, or completely dry throughout the whole day. I suppose if it is wet in the morning I should ride.

I live and work just north of Dallas in Plano and it's been pretty much this way here at least. There have been plenty of mornings where it's bright and sunny, but by the time evening rolls around it's dumped a bunch of rain. The good news is, if it does rain it typically just really dumps rain for a half hour to an hour, then it stops for a while.

Still been a lousy month or so for riding. Even if it's not raining, it's 80% humid out so you're drenched in sweat by the time you get to work.
