Yeah I know what you mean. I got caught in the monsoon on the M5 when Gloucestershire got flooded out. M5 was under inches of water and I think my boots were full to the top.... was only wearing leathers, no waterproofs.... a real learning curve! I was purple from the black dye running out of the leather - took days to scrub off! You just have to smile and keep singing in yer helmet lol.

Haha..... Not a word of a lie.... I was singing in ma helmet when it got heavy..  :mfr_lol:
Glad it's not just me on that one  :clap: :clap: :clap:
When your caught out in mad weather like that.... That's exactly how you gotta look at it... A learning experience!!... I hear of riders never using their bikes if the forecast looks dodgy, but how can you ever become an accomplished rider, if you've never ridden in testing conditions?
Head down and bash on... Or what is it Bear Grylls always says?.....
LETS GET INTO IT !!!
