« on: November 30, 2007, 22:47:15 PM »

i'm really frustrated as all my usual riding mates wont come riding/building with me on sunday due to the 'rain'.So what you get even more wet in the shower.
And i ask,what happened to the 'REAL' men.Anyone else having problems with non-weatherproof friends?
Also if theres anyone in Bucks(Wycombe area)up for a ride/build sesh drop me a PM

It's not that i don't like riding in rain. Don't get me wrong, some of the best times i've been riding have been in literally torrential downpours (Gulley for example)..

One problem, i can never bloody see anything!! Goggles get steamed and splatted and you end up blinking so much to clear your eyes you may aswell have em closed!

Hurley is fantastic, when I can get there, living as I do in the Midlands.....

Pic not me....

But seriously, you have to get out and ride in the mud. 8 times out of 10 it seems you will get a race weekend which is caked in mud. If you don't embrace mud and learn to have fun in it, how will you learn to ride in it?
