With all the rain, what did I do to my Effie today? Nothing, just looked longingly at it.
1984 FJ1100 Ms Effie brand new :)
1984 FJ1100 Pearlie, stock as.
1985 FJ1100 Mr Effie 647,000K and still running hard.
1985 FJ1200 'Yummy' takes a licking & keeps on ticking
2013 Trumpy Tiger 800, let's do another lap of Oz

After all is said and done, more is said than done :)

Thunderstorms here today.

Didn't care.

Rode anyways.

Lesson of the day: mesh riding jackets don't give much rain protection.... :sarcastic:

Oh, it's everywhere. So was the water

It's a large mesh jacket.

:sarcastic:

Doesn't matter though. I'm not made of sugar so it was only a nice cool ride.

:good2:

 :flag_of_truce: Some of the puddles were deeeeeeep, plus the pot-holes are more like sink-holes full of water, just waiting to ding rims & bugger up my bike...kids loved it though. Day off school!
