Spring is coming

This morning was a hard rain. So hard that my bike was flooded, literally. The starter button wouldn't connect. I was kind of tickled. One of the things i like about riding an old 'antique" is the kick starter. Half way through the first kick and she banged off. It was pretty much the usual trip to work. A little warmer and just a tad damp.
The rain (mostly hard rain) lasted all day. Such is springtime here in N.W.A. always wet and windy.
The ride back home was, no other way to put it, nice. The looks from the people in the cars at traffic lights. the hard driving rain and deep water made for a skills sharpening trip.
I made it home with one skin and don't remember seeing any other bikes so I think may have had the monopoly on riding today.
Tomorrow is suppose to be the same as today so it should prove to be interesting.
