Snow last night Snow tonight I an o soooooo bored
That’s what woke me up here in the Tampa area,...........the rain. Tomorrow there won’t be any rain and pretty chilly for FL standards, so I’ll be taking the concours14 out, if things go as planned.

Yep rained again all morning and of course I work all day. Maybe a night ride is in order...
...or a ride in the rain.
It's really not bad at all, I actually enjoy it, and it'll improve your riding ability

I'm with you, I am a fair weather rider myself now....IF I get caught in the rain that's one thing but I will never venture out in the rain anymore...been there done that-even snow.

Haven't done snow yet, but sounds like a joy!
On my dirt bike it was, on my street bike, not so much...thankfully I didn't have far to go but never again.
I've ridden in snow, and ice, sport and dirtbikes.
It's as you'de think, zero traction. Letting my feet slide down the road on a sportbike for some type of balance, no thanks.
Ice, in patches, dry road is fine, then just sliding over the spots of ice and black ice, and grabbing traction again on dry spots(ah, to be young and stupid again, lol).
The dirtbikes, not much better, dirt tires are equally useless on ice. In snow, it depends on the snow itself, how wet or dry it is, as to if you get any traction at all.
At least the deep wet snow makes for fun crashes with usually little to no damage...and back when my body could take more abuse(apparently those things just took a few years to hurt, lol).
I'll go riding in the rain on anything(for how long depends on if it's cold outside or not).
For the snow and ice, I'll stick to trucks and 4wheelers...although I would like to try studded ice tires. They look like they have more traction than hot, dry pavement.
