Same here between above 110 temps and now monsoons very little riding the past 2 weeks.

No issue riding in the rain but when the monsoon season starts it is bad, rivers on the streets and lots of lightening. It will level out soon for me.

I think I will quit my job and ride out to LA, then head back toward New Orleans, sleeping on the side of the road, chilling along the way...

Looks like most of the bad weather has gone South (to you) of me or North of me this Summer. It's the luck of the draw, er, Drew.
