It has been raining for the last week and got me thinking of my funniest riding in the rain experience. Many years ago me and my best mate Marty (RIP) were off on one of our 3-4 day away' trips'. Life then involved a lot of non-prescription substances and our 650 and 750 Triumph Tiger/Bonnevile bikes. This 'trip' it had rained for the whole time away , the bikes were filthy and we both looked like drowned rats by the time this 'experience' took place. We'd been riding a few dirt roads and we were covered in mud. Heading home we rode into a small country town , wet , muddy and pretty wacked. Rounded this blind corner and there sitting at a stop sign were 30 or 40 bike coppers out doing some wet weather rider training. Everyone of them eyeballed us as we slowly and innocently rode round that corner. We had planned to pull-up under some shelter and have a cigarette but thought better of it and got out of there a quick as we could.....
