Default Now I want rain!

It wasn't bad enough to be out on Sat. night at Home Depot picking up supplies for a weekend painting project but to get stuck behind one of the 1st sand/salt trucks of the winter season really sucked! It'll be at least May of next year before its all gone The only hope is a good rain to wash all the salt away then maybe get another ride in. Sure don't like getting the bike covered in salt.

1+ on that rain. I got drizzled on riding home from the International Motorcycle Show in Long Beach. Might have to put the liner in my jacket.

You guys in the warm climates are starting a bit early with this. Most of us that are located in the "cold regions" are victims of circumstance, at least I am. I hate winters and I'm extremely jealous of you guys in the warm climates.

I feel for you guys with long winters. We had snow down here in SE Louisiana but, it wasn't enough to ruin the riding.
