Default Why rain?

Why does it always rain on the weekend? I know it's spring and it's probably normal, but what a pain. It's beautiful here all week, sunny and in the 70's, but here it is the weekend again, and it's 50 and raining. Tomorrow is 48 and rain. Just a rant, but I'd really like to ride more than just to work and back!!!!!

I hear ya. We had nice clear weather, 75 degrees, all week, and then today foggy with rain... tomorrow might be bleak too. Why can't this stuff be here when I'm stuck in a building for work?

There is 10 inches of snow in my driveway.

I'm praying for rain.

Hey Blade,

Come on up here to North Central Illinois. We are supposed to get rain and thunderstorms on Monday day and early evening and close to 63 F and then a dusting of snow early that morning. You can have it all in the same day. One day you can ride the next your shoveling snow off the drive way!!!! Anyway I feel your pain....Warm weather can't hide for ever.


Later,
Joe

Exactly the same here in Fort Worth, bruthu' ....I feel your pain!!!!
I'm thinking about getting in my car and going down to the HD dealer to at least get the "thrill" of spending some more money on my bike.

There is just something that feels wrong about driving the cage down there though!

Get some good rain gear and give the rain a big F U.
It is ok to get wet, sometimes it's even fun to ride in the rain, well not down pours and T storms but you gotta do what you gotta do.
