the funny thing is... all the places here that fill up with water and cars hydroplane... I cut right through... most times as long as it's less than 12" of water... I don't even notice any feedback in the bars.

I enjoy riding in the rain...

I've gotta get some liquid seam sealer and tear out my liner for my jacket and re seal the seams. I fucked up and washed my jacket in HOT water, and the taped seams became, untaped.

Derf what size gloves you wear? I've got some A* winter gloves, size XL but they just don't fit me right and I don't like the loss of dexterity. I've only worn them once... I used a pair for the trip up to Omaha in Dec last year... but they were a size too small (didn't have a choice but to make them work) I used these on the way down. I may hold on to them until after my trip this Dec... but really wanna find a lighter pair...
