    Damn rain

    OK,

    It's pouring out...and I'm bored as hell. I work in the bike business and we are stuck between seasons. It's like a double tap from mother nature.

    Over the last week or so I decided to create a FB page called Street Fighter Cycles. (No I really don't have anything better to do)

    I figured one more place to talk about bikes, share pics, videos, and the witty sarcasm that we all seem to share. It's so new that it has only three likes. It's a shiny new baby (only without the shitty diaper)

    Please check it out, comment, make suggestions, post pics, or whatever.

    This is more of a try it and see. If it works...great. If not i'll just go back to staring out the window on rainy days.

    I tried to post a link, but I cant get it to work.

    Thank you for posting the link. I don't know why I couldn't get it to work.

    Re: Damn rain

    Here's my suggestion, buy some rain gear and ride in the rain!

    Nice idea Rossco, but when you are at work in an industry that relies on either great weather or snow... You suggestion sucks

    Been there dude I really have no tips for days like yesterday, just try and have a little relief you ain't the only one!

    Well the sun is out today. Time to sell some toys!! I have been riding in and out of the rain for thirty years. I even have two rain suits (I don't know why). But, your right. When your in this business, mother nature can be your best friend or worst enemy.

    If it makes you feel any better we've had 1 drizzle here since I moved here, and I think 2 bits of measurable precipitation since May.

    The rain can be hit and miss. You can't pick up a set of tires or a new race suit if you are on your bike can you!? Well you can and I've seen people roll up to my store buy a tire or two and ride off with it on the bike. I myself wouldn't do it. If its raining out and I can't ride that's a good time to go over somethings and pick up some stuff here and there.
