"remember that ride when we got blasted by rain n wind?" or "remember that sunny day ride we did?"  |

Re: It's raining outside so...
Never go out in the rain (but sometimes get caught in the rain). Don't like cleaning the bike afterwards. Don't like falling off. Don't like having to reduce speed, especially downhill.
Used to love running in the rain though - somehow different. Tyson

Re: It's raining outside so...
I like riding in the rain just hate that it covers thr pot holes and there's a lot of them where I live and I'd really rather not be bashing rims. So when it rains of to the gym I go.

Re: It's raining outside so...
Both of my long weekend rides this last weekend were in the rain for about an hour or so at some point. Honestly, the rain is refreshing this time of year where I am. Humidity is always 65+% so when it starts raining it starts to feel like I can breath again.

Re: It's raining outside so...
I like to go to run when it rains, of course if not heavily.. but it`s mainly because of thoughts about fact, that later you would have to clean, grease etc. your bike...

cleaning the bike is a pain in the ar*e.....especially when it's 22h and you've worked 9 hours and then trained, but it has rained every day for weeks here in Holland recently, and I can't just suspend training and racing. I have cleaning the bike down to less than 10 minutes now.....put it under the balcony and chuck buckets of warm soapy water over it! Crits in the rain is fun too of course! |
