Default Finally! No rain!

Weather was crazy here for past couple days, actually, a whole week. Rain every single day…then the insane humidity….

Yesterday, another super rain and we were without the power for like 3 hours.

But today? 75 and cool! Finally! I just washed her from the previous rain we got caught in and I am ready to take a trip to one of the farther dealers. I have no idea what for, but it seems like a right thing to do!

This is going to be a great weekend!

Have a fantastic weekend my dudes. Keep it on the shiny side up!

My in-laws live in The Villages. I love going there….for a week only lol. I don’t know how these old folks make it though with all that humidity there and their arthritis.

I have to say though, the only reason I go there is to golf my *** off everyday at 7am.

But, then when I am home, I cry and wish at I was at The Villages while I blow 3 feet of snow off my driveway.

Haven't seen rain in 6 weeks or more. Dry as a popcorn fart up here.

I would kill for rain. I would go ride in it, it is so smoky here, it feels like you smoked a pack of Luckys after a ride.
We live in hell, this summer.

Can’t see where you are from (on phone) but we have had some nasty storms this week in VA. I’m planning a 200 mile ride this afternoon. It’s cloudy but radar says I SHOULD miss the rain. I’ll have the rain gear just in case.

I am in Ohio. Another beautiful day today. 75 degrees. Little on the chilly side but perfect for a ride!

Here in AZ, we finally got monsoon weather. Been having some down pours in our area at night then boy howdy hot and humid all day. A couple areas hit with flash floods so those roads are out. Glad to have rain in the desert but does hamper riding. We are supposed to dry out a bit by the end of this week and into next week.
Maybe get some saddle time then......
