dryfterGreat. We're in the middle of a drought, and it starts raining heavily, what will end up being about 24 hours.
Guess what? It started today, and ends later tomorrow. Thus, neatly covering the period when I was planning on riding a motorcycle across half the frigging country. (OK, so 800 km isn't anywhere near half, shush.)
I know I've ridden on English motorways in subzero temperatures, and pouring rain, and even snow a couple of times.. however, the distances pale in comparison. I can put up with an hour of horribleness with the promise of a nice warm house at the end of it.. but eight hours is just too much, and although I'm going to stop at roadhouses along the way, that 30-60 min break isn't enough to dry off.
Forecasters suck, so maybe it'll return to the 35 degree temperatures we had on saturday.. If it's still raining solidly, I'm not going anywhere tomorrow!
