I have had three driving days in mine since on the road. Sometimes, I got wet!
I am always looking for them, even to work and back. Wednesday has potential for me.
Saturday says grey cloud at the moment, wife and family may say something else.

Why do I have to make the tools to finish the job? More time then money.

I went for a potter last saturday. Mostly to get used to the new rack (2.4) and try to sort some shocker settings. It was awesome to get some fresh
air, and the engine was running brilliantly.
No rain actually falling, but there had been enough to clear the salt from the roads.
Getting wet isn't so bad really. I cycle to work and as long as you are warm, then wet isn't all bad (as long as you don't fall off
the road, breakdown, or get stuck in a traffic jam)
Nice, but slippery. Wheelspin in every gear with my rather old tyres (well maybe not in 5th, but I am not totally stupid).
Then I took the Suzuki ignition unit out so I can drive the sparks with the MegaSquirt, so I guess I won't be out for a while.
Just get out there, you know you want to.

Went out Saturday and Sunday as the sun was out...
It was a bit slippery in the tintop (Vectra 150Bhp) but the Mojo stuck to the road really well. I guess it can be a bonus only having 125bhp/tonne
sometimes?!
It looks like there's some good days coming up soon - I may have to take the Mojo into work for a few of them.

Weather, don't talk to me about weather!
Had to take the bike to work this morning 'cos the missus needed the car and I didn't even get out of the lane, hit some s**t on the
crappy road and went down like a sack of the proverbial
Guess I'll be looking for some more plastic and levers then
Some chuffin' Xmas present! Really cheered up my day
