A note about this forum, it's history, an apology and an announcement

[the Ferret]

Offroad and I rode in a lot of rain when we went out to ride in Colorado with Longranger. We were wearing standard riding gear like Tourmaster cordura stuff, and Longranger was wearing goretex lined riding gear. We could all stay dry IF offroad and I actually stopped and put on our rain gear. If not, well then we got wet. Longranger could just keep riding. His gear still got wet but he stayed relatively dry. The Tourmaster cordura will keep you dry in a sprinkle, but in a toad strangler you need " wetties" or whatever it is that Cormanus calls them. My rainsuit on the CB is a set of Frog Toggs. On the ST it's a set from Cabela's that stays in the saddlebags full time until needed. Ive not found waterproof gloves and I have tried, but my son bought me a set of the crab claw over mitts from Aerostich that seem to do a good job but feel really weird.

Easiest way to keep dry on a motorcycle is not to ride when it's raining or about to. Not always possible though.
