1st rain ride w/the Angels & Nolan

[Stig / Major Tom]

Or:
The train, the rain, the lobsters.

Angels are sufficiently scuffed in to take them into the rain this morning for coffee.

A train (long sunofagun. Shut off the scooter and went for a walk)


Rain chasing me...


nothing serious out there......


time to head home....





Too warm to ride with the liner in the mesh jacket.....so, wet the lobsters, again.


New Angels and the new Nolan worked just fine.

Never used to bother about getting wet on the home bound journey, it was the outbound one which used to get me!

A question Neil --

These Bullit riding jeans have some water-proofing on them - I noticed again yesterday in the rain.
How long does this last?
I tend never to wash my riding jeans*.....so, maybe that will extend the life of the water repelling?

* I ride at daybreak - never hot, never sweating, living with 3 females I have to shower regularly.

Can't give you a definitive answer Tom as mine have only seen the odd shower!  Like you however, I suspect the water repellant quality is in the fabric dressing and as such, the less you wash 'em or get them drenched in a downpour, the longer it should last?
