    I feel for you fundi, so much for the "Sunshine" state, eh. I'm QLD'r born and bred but at the moment it's more like "Perfect some day, underwater the next". 

    It's obviously not as bad down here in NSW, but there has been way too many rainy days for my liking since I picked up my Street Bob in November. It was raining the day I picked it up and I got absolutely, pouring water outta my boots, nuts in a puddle of water, soaked, on my first big ride. The old girl handled like a dream in the wet and riding in the rain just makes those glorious sunny days even better.

    My suggestion, if you want it to stop raining, spend a sh*t load of money on wet weather gear. I bought mine and barely a drop of H2O on me while riding since. Best investment ever.

    Yep feel your pain... It's been 31 days 3 hours and 42 minutes since I last rode my bike. For me it's been because I'm in the middle of moving to Rocky, Working away and stuck in Gladstone with perfect riding weather over New Years and my bike at my new place in Rocky with roads cut in between. And it didn't help any that the bloke up the road from my olds was out on his Fatboy almost every day that I was there.

    But come this monday afternoon I will be back in Rocky and the cover is coming off the Fatbob even if it is just for a lap around the block!

    BTW nice Fatbob you have there. A bit glossy for me but very nice.

    today i rode

    even if i had to work starting her up at 4 in the morning was bliss

    rattling the windows of my house and others around

    iddled out of the street and let her have it for the 20+ km to work f#$k it was great

    didn,t want to turn into work

    even the ride home was good no traffice to speak of and no boys in blue

    just some wanker 20 + stone in weight on his pre 1980 herashema screamer that wanted to eye ball me at the lights for the hole red light

    and rev his bike like he was about to do the quarter mile run

    only to miss the green and me to ride off down the rode llike miss daisy

    happy to be out and ridin in the sun f%$ĂȘn wanker

    same again tomorrow

     

    cheers fundi

    i agree with a ride to support the towns

    we all ride them when its good times

    i think around brisbane area there will be some poker runs starting up as soon as the roads start to be cleared up

    when you took the pic of your bike, in the blazing sunshine and dry driveway, why did you not run amuck that day?
