Wet Weather Motorcycle Riding - Rain, Rain

Wet weather can actually enhance the riding experienceDuring the winter of '08-'09, there really wasn't much of a rainy season to speak of around our offices here in Southern California, so there wasn't a lot of opportunity to keep my wet-weather riding skills sharp. This year, however, has been a completely different story; numerous weather fronts during January and February proceeded to form a conga line and drench the area with some pretty heavy rain.
