Yes, I'm still riding in this crap weather.  Got rained on about 6 times yesterday when I was out - Oh and for the record, blind drivers are even more blind when its raining and dark, I lost count of the number of close calls I had yesterday    The only time the bike is left at home is when snow is forecast - apart from that its the 10R everyday.

   Yeh, I always do take care and am very aware of whats going on around me.  Twice yesterday in rain + dark I was on roundabouts where I was nearly sideswiped.  I think I need to get a louder horn fitted cos the standard one just doesn't seem to get noticed

Sod the horn, just get bigger boots - with FUCK OFF BIG STEEL TOECAPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

   I wish - knowing my luck if I kicked out at somebody's car I'd lose my balance and fall off

I can't believe how many vehicles refuse to move over when you catch them up these days.  White van man this morning, empty motorway and he's creating spray in lane 3 and wont' move over.  A dozy bint in an A3 doing 50! in the outside lane talking to her colleague using lots of hand gestures, so little control of the car, and she won't pull over.  Dickhead in a Vauxhall last night who wouldn't/couldn't go over 50 in the outside lane cos of the standing water, and won't pull over, morons the lot of them.  A seriously useless git in a Honda last night took 2 miles attempting to overtake a lorry, after that piece of pathetic driving he had to brake and pull in behind it before he missed his junction.  In each case I'm getting covered in their spray while they search for some ability.   It seems to have got worse in the last couple of months, roll on the school holidays.

Don't even start me on foglights, arrggghhh.
