If there is strong chance of thunderstorms and downpour I won't ride, but I'll ride through the rain as necessary and certainly on the "chance" days.
If I didn't ride on chance days, I would have missed some gourgous weather, the weather people around here seem to think that 30% or greater means its going to rain. Chance of rain everyday for the last week, rained once, for about an hour in the middle of my workday, at the cafeteria and was set to ride home.

Well, yesterday I installed a new Silverstar bulb and readjusted my headlamp so it wasn't trying to light up the bottom of the potholes I was hitting cause I couldn't see them until it was too late, now it lights up the road. Been working on my custom radiator cover, slow going with a dremel, jig saws are apparently to violent for thin sheet metal...oops. Starting to come together now, drove around today looking for that mesh the tuner kids use in their grills, trying to avoid paying shipping, so far unsuccessful.
