In the rain

Noticed the price of petrol has gone up again, locally to 110.9p/l! As my car uses super unleaded (even more expensive) I am going to be using the bike more. Today it was raining and this would be only my second time in the wet, first with a decent rainfall. Actually it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. After donning the all the waterproof gear (although forgot the waterproof gloves!) it was quite pleasant. All that needed to be remembered was to take things a little slower, slow down earlier for manoeuvres and leave a larger gap to the vehicle in front.

All in all it was a reasonably pleasant ride it.
