It Rained !!

Well after so long time it rained. I had almost forgotten that i was in Seattle. No matter how much we hate rains but I am sure rain makes everybody happy. The surroundings suddenly turn into a very beautiful palette. Temps fall and suddenly you long for a hot cup of tea and something spicy to go with it.. weather does have its own effects on humans.

But its not a pleasant experience for bikers when its raining, I rode to office today and had to take back roads since freeways were wet. You have to be extra careful when its raining when you are on your motorcycle. The turns are not that great, you have to reduce your lean angle, you cannot push the throttle while in a turn coz there is less traction and above all.. after couple of miles your helmet visor starts fogging !! not fun.

It was a small drizzle which will not last long and i guess we still have many sunny days left before the "Black" takes over.

All in all a very nice Monday !
