Get your suit and go ride in rain... not a problem really, just dont go crazy since your inputs needs to be a little more smooth. It rains everyday here.

Yeah and you don't have anywhere to move on the freeway either. I lived out there,
when they were chasing OJ up the 405, all I could think was that he was making good time.

We had a pretty decent group ride setup for today and dinner at a decent seafood place, too bad nobody told the weatherman.

99% of the year you can ride. riding around in town showing off your bike it sucks when it's hot as there is no air, but if you get out of town and ride the wind makes it so it's really not all that bad.

That is why I keep my butt out of LA. I hate traffic. I live in the middle of no where. My idea of traffic is stuck behind 3 cars at a stop sign.

What city are you in? My in-laws are all in Brazil. I love going there and seeing so many bikes on the road. The moto taxi guys are great (and a little insane). And no one cares if it rains or not.

I ride enough in the rain it doesn't bother me much any more. Spin up the back tire sometimes. :burnout

Some of the most fun I had was riding in the rain. Talk about learning alot about being smooth with your inputs. And it was on a twin with tons of engine braking. Get out there and ride.

Cripes...I'm actually in Orange County right now and on a Sunday evening the driving and traffic is still nutz.

And to those guys who say get out and ride in the rain. I rode from Ottawa to Toronto in a continuous downpour, my rain dues for this season are paid.
