    Much the same, but If a ride is on I will prolly turn up if it's only showers as I don't mind the odd short bit of wet. Bums me out when my bike gets dirty after I just cleaned it though.

    - kinda difficult to get out of the garage if it's already raining.
    - ocassional showers ok.
    - being caught up in a heavy rain... uhm... don't mind it but only if on the way home, or to a hotel

    19 years of daily commuting from the foothills of the Waitakere Ranges. Works out to be around 25,000-30,000km per year.Rains about 65% of the time. My 4 wheeler sometimes goes from WOF to WOF on the same tank of petrol.
    Hence, if there is a group ride and it looks like rain its not so tempting as the novelty has kinda worn off by now

    I guess we've all had too many years of commuting and bike only transport,if I don't have to ride in shitting weather I won't.But if I want to ride,then I will go out whatever the weather.I went for a ride on sunday in that high wind - was fun coming back on Hetherington Rd with a big tail wind!
