I ride through all winters, beleive me i'd rather be a big girl than be forced to endure the rain, snow and ice!

I do think the experience in all the different weathers and surfaces make you into a better all-round biker through. Certainly helped me on the way home yesterday!

At your age it's not about riding in the rain. You need a bandanna and some fingerless gloves and you're all sorted mate thumbs

I'm sure there are a number of us who did our time as "real bikers" - I was a despatch rider before I joined the army and used to deliver the news videotapes from incident/interview sites to the tv studios when I lived in devon (before the days of the internet!) - including more than once during severe gales that were blowing over trees and lorries!!! Shocked - but there comes a time in life when riding in shitty weather starts to seem an unnecessary pastime so I am quite happy to join the ranks of "fair weather bikers" - except when I'm off travelling the country, where getting caught in bad weather is all part of the experience! thumbs

Yeah would be about 3 grand for me to get insured on a flaming Saxo! thumb down

I was riding home in the pouring rain yesterday, and even though i was a wee bit cold and absolutley soaked through, i'd still rather have been on my bike than driving a car...
