I just looked at my riding jacket, I've been home since 8pm (now 1 am), and it is still dripping wet

Yeah I do and don't care about the bike itself getting wet. I just don't want to be.

I almost left mine home yesterday. i took off the hard bags and almost forgot to put it in my tank bag. Glad i brought it because otherwise it would have poured on me and I would be blue right now from my jacket bleeding onto my skin

Looks like the ride home this morning should be nice at least.

same here. I left the JR Alter Ego stuff home and switched to my First Gear mesh stuff for today

My boots were dry because of the christmas light trick I picked up on ADV
