Heh, one memorable club ride over the Hopland grade turned me off to
rain riding. It started pouring buckets to the point that it hurt when
it hit then to make matters worse, the windshield wipers died. I still
had a grin on my face (or was it a grimace?) though.
I rarely ever put my top up or in the car for that matter. It lives in
the rafters of the garage. I do have a hard top that needs some
fiberglass work, new rubber and window that I swear I'll get around to
one of these years!
Mike, heal from your surgery and join the mid month drive if you are
able. I was unable to drive for a couple of months following my last two
surgeries because of the residual effects of the anesthesia.
