I’ve considered beagle basher’s mate’s plastic bags a bit more. I was probably after a pair that didn’t slip as much. Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy to wear plastic bags on my feet but not some cheap and slippery second hand bags
Just wrap those bags in potato or oyster sacks for that much needed extra grip.
You might be better going with simply wrapping a pair of baby nappies around your feet and ankles. They supposedly have that waterproof outer and soft absorbent liner for water that does get through. Plus it’s easy to tell if you’ve been in heavy rain when the little rabbits change colour. Wring em out and hang them up in your hotel room or around the engine to dry out and you're good to go.
The road king screen pushes a lot of the rain away , But my boots always filled up with water from getting wet from knees down, I drilled holes in the bottom of the boots , and hey presto they dont fill up anymore. Keep riding until rain stops and continue until you are blow dried.
I do not own any rain gear. You're always going to get wet in a tropical down pour, I keep a spare pair of socks at work the boots will dry out during the day. I am lucky compared to you blokes down South who also have to attend with being cold as well.
i would prefer a lower guard .. or a fender extender
doesn't work that much.
I ride in the rain all the time. Never ran into a pothole while leaning on my 80mm front tyre, always wondering what its like. Anyone had that experience?
