It's raining again.

:gaah::gaah::gaah:

It's rained for two weeks straight. It's supposed to rain for at least another week.

I'm going riding no matter what this Saturday, shake out the rain gear, but... c'mon, man!

2011 has been a LOUSY weather year around these parts. Two freakin' hot this summer, and when it's not hot, it's raining.

REAL fall can't get here soon enough...

:gaah: We've got the same cruddy conditions up here... forecast all the way through to the middle of next week! :cus:

Going a little stir crazy here too. This weekend supposed to be NICE tho!!

 

[Dragonrider]

Continued partly sunny and dry, temps 78 to 80 today, and tomorrow. Went for a ride last night at 11pm in a "T" shirt, temp was 67. It's why I only ride in the West….

Not here, sadly. I've watched the Saturday forecast creep inexorably from 10% chance of rain and partly sunny up to 30% chance of rain and partly cloudy to now 60% chance of rain and thunderstorms in the afternoon.

I'll usually go out Sunday mornings, but I like to be home in time for football, so Saturday's the day I have all day to ride, daggnabit!

Believe me, I'd be even MORE thankful if we could send what's here over to you :thumbup:

Raining here pretty much every day. Riding to work now in the mid to high 40 degree range.

Have switched over to my textile outfit, rainboots and winter gloves.

I am guessing 40-45 riding days left here--assuming snow by the end of October.

Only fuss about what you can control and Ma Nature ain't one of 'em!!!!

Many years ago I finally accepted that Ma Nature is going to do what "she" is going to do....soooooo I no longer give her ANY power in my life....always thankful that I am here to enjoy whatever she brings my way....rain? get out the raingear under 40...get out the bajaron suit or Gebring heated since ryding is a major part of my life...only ice and snow stop me....even see that the Seth's, Dave's (Teddy), Doc plus others don't let that slow 'em down (literally :roflblack::roflblack.

Ya know, I don't mind riding in the rain. To a certain degree, I actually enjoy it, in a sick sort of way.

What I mind is riding in *traffic* in the rain, seeing as people here drive like :cus: when it so much as drizzles.

Besides, it's still 75 and humid here. Throw on my rain gear and block the airflow, and I might as well be riding in a swamp.

Lastly, all the nice scenery looks like crud in overcast skies. I just want Halloween weather, is that such a tall order? ray:

The rain is OK by me can't ride this weekend anyway, Have to get a few of the guys together and post our property [1300 ac.]
Hunting season is coming up soon, Gotta post to keep the local hunters honest:sour:

 

[Bob Denman]

I'm teaching Sportsman Education courses the entire weekend as well; but it still would be nice if Mother Nature would let me ride the Spyder to the courses! :gaah: (Without raingear that is...pps

 

[BIKEMIKE]

Yes raining here too, now that my youngest is driving she had the wife's car so the wife took my truck that leaves the bike. I don't mind riding in the rain at all, only ice and snow. ( good rain gear )

 

[Bob Denman]

The Missus will have the Jeep this weekend for her projects... It looks as if I'm riding; I'll even get a chance to give the TourMaster a little workout... :thumbup:

 

[Rayelljay]

Hate to do it to y'all but the rain has quit here and by the look of the radar it could be clear for a while yet.
I'm going ryding.:2thumbs:

Hey Dave & Bob

I'm right in the middle between you... yes, I'm sick of ths weather...

But how 'bout we meet and go beat up Rayelljay! :^)

 

[Rayelljay]

Sorry Guys but, to be fair it was only a 30 minute each way long way round there and back to Summerfield.
Nice run there but twits galore on the return
Now if I could only figure out a way to transport my telescope....!
