Is there anywhere where it is not raining this weekend? I had hoped to get out tomorrow but the only place which loooks like its going to be warm and sunny is Riyadh in Saudi Arabia, 45 degrees C apparantly.

Has anyone got any rides planned for this weekend?

Raining all week apparently. Summers been and gone

Looks like it'll only be showers on Sunday though (he said hopefully). Anyway, it's only water!

surely a drop of the wet stuff doesnt stop you from getting out?

Lonewolf

Yeah that's the thing though, it's not just a drop.

It's England it rains a lot, we have bikes that keep us warm and dry (with the help of the right kit) and the challenge of trying to stay upright is one of the many challenges of motorcycling. There will still be lots of fantastic vistas, and the feeling of being out in the fresh air, turn the wick down slightly and enjoy.    cheers Geoff.   If its any good to you Mr Wolf I am meeting some mates tomorrow up at "The bridge" Kirby lonsdale 10 bells, dont know where we will be off to after meeting but I'm sure something good will be in the offing. ;D
What would you rather be   or a wasp?

Lonewolf

Yeah, why not?
Providing the forecast is reasonable. I dont mind a bit of rain but I draw the line at floods. I'll come and say hi and see where you are planning to go. The forecast out towards Kendal, Ambleside is looking good for tomorrow, so I might head out that way but I'm always open to suggestions.    ;D

its been dry here in West Wales and did manage to get out for 2 hours on the GTR for a couple of hours, though it was a bit windy but as per usual the GTR took all thrown at it in its stride  :)
