Providing you're not on your way somewhere (Work/college)

Went out this morning while it was only intermittent, toward the end of the ride the sky was throwing it down and it's bloody exhilerating and invigorating, feeling the rain everywhere and realising you don't have to care and can enjoy it for what it is, just a bit of water 8) :lol:

    I love the pretty light show made by the water spraying up off the front wheel. Like fireworks only with water. :oops:
