Fall, like winter, only without the potential to snowboard

The worst part about riding a motorcycle in the rain (provided you have rain gear) is not the getting wet bit, it’s the fact that you can’t ride fast, can’t corner quickly, and certainly can’t accelerate hard. It’s like driving with my grandparents, zero to 25 mph in three blocks. On the bright side, my bike still sounds cool when I'm looking sodden and miserable while plodding slowly down the street.

I've often wondered how any motor cycler could enjoy riding in the rain. I think you just answered me. LOL

Safety is cool. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Yup, motorcycling in the rain isn't really all that entertaining.

I'm not sure that safety is all that cool, but I've never really been too concerned with being cool. I tried to gun it going to church a few weekends ago and the back end of my bike tried it's best to become the front end. Not a feature I'm all that crazy about. So now I put along on rainy days.
